    Before retting, the seed pods of the flax are combed out. But they showed the flax harvested green, and so perhaps the pods are immature or even nonexistent in their batch. The "hetchel" is often called a "hackle", and the process is "hackling". We think of a dog "raising its hackles" when the ridge of hairs on its back are raised. The hackle tool looks similar, with spikes sticking up. Often there are two or more grades of hackle with the spikes closer together for a second run of hackling. Tow is an interesting word, since in addition to "flaxen hair" we have "tow heads", who are very light-haired people.Tow can be carded for spinning as well. It is a shorter staple fiber, and will not produce a fine thread. But it is fine for sack cloth or cordage.

Dad was historian, Wrote Patton & His Pistols while at WP. He restored Historical Buildings, Battlefields and his final was Jesse’s James Farm & Home. I have all his records, journals he kept daily as he wrote conversations with HST & so many dignitaries. Have a huge collection that needs to be put back in History.
