It's a few days later. The retting bath doesn't smell much any more, although the flies are all over it so maybe I've just become used to the smell.
The yucca leaves have been removed and given a good scrape. My scapula kept snapping, so I had to switch to a stone tool (not shown) part way through.
The scraped fibres are then rinsed, and hung out on the line to dry. Then we'll scrape, comb, and wash them some more.
