Creating a Fishing Rod.






Making a fishing rod is a craft that can be just as intricate as needlepoint, which by my understanding is an exceptable task for this journal.  This is something I did not do because of this project but just happen to fall in at the same time.  I have just recently begun this hobby as I am currently working on my second rod.  The Orange rod in the picture is my first.  The white rod is the second, as you can see a little more intricate. The white rod is still a work in progress.   There are many different types of wraps that can be performed on these rod for function as well as decroration.  The wraps are done in thin thread wrapped neatly and tightly around the rod.  Can it qualify for this?  Needlepoint can and this craft has been around just about the same time, sure it may have evolved over the years but what hasn't?
