Thanks Laggan,, you can never practice enough.

[HuntersRest69]

Stunning hoods Ken, they are works of art!! im very envious of your skill, i will have to practice more. The thing is, i have trouble keeping the stitches tight both sides, oh they look neat enough, and are light tight but im not happy with them. maybe i should try something new.
Anyway, nice work Ken.

Hello Kym, thank you for your kind comments, I sell hundreds of hoods to the UK,, with your strong currency my hoods are very affordable as they are in US dollars. I make traditional colored hoods as well as my more colorful fun ones..

Close up of an Elle hood made in March , 2007,, this shows the the tooling and dyeing nicely,, this is my personal favourite and is in the collection of a UK falconer.

[Fly]

i like the green hood with never lose me braces

[SakerJack]

i like the green hood with never lose me braces

Thanks Fly,, as "OFF" as those braces look.. the serve a tremendous purpose,, why lose ANY hood in the field? With these braces you would have to be BLIND not to see your hood on the ground..

[SakerJack]

Here are some new ones just finished, just need to add the braces.
