You did a very good job for your first butt wrap Tim. Little more tightening her and there and a little practice on the tie off and you will be off and flying. Pretty agressive to close out your first wrap

Good stuff...Its great that you actually closed it off, now you may have a better grasp on how almost ALL patterns are based on diamonds and chevrons....crosswrapping.
