Sounds good Mason. Remember, Dollarama is your friend for raffia grass! Just soak it and hang it to dry before use, otherwise you'll get all kinds of funny angles out of it.

Actually I restarted working on a new ghillie myself today, had a woodland helmet cover (for a hood as opposed to a boonie) that I glued (ok Shoo Goo'd) fishing net to earlier this summer but never got farther than that. So sitting on ass in the basement with beer, decided to take what I have for leftover burlap and start shredding and tying. Am looking to make a head/shoulder jacket type lightweight ghillie, something I can roll up and carry easier than my full jacket/pants/boonie+burlap I've been using the past few years, and make it more of a fall type colouration instead of the woodland that my other ghillie is. Got a bunch tied onto the netting for the hood, need more netting to cut a very rough shortcoat out of and attach it to the hood. And more burlap and dye is required. Is ok, winter is almost here and I need stuff to do other than fix guns every weekend.
