This is my first Rocket Pocket attempt. I realized the channel was too short when i finished the right so. Please provide me with your all knowing wisdom TLF.

um okay first attempt the sidewalls are too loose
your saddle doens't look too correct and i can't tell about the coil
good try though

The knots are interlocked incorrectly, you only interlocked a part of them. Also, you used to many twists on the side. That's all I can see right now, but I'll look at the pics a little more. Pretty good for your first.

from what i can see the channel is too narrow, or it just may be the pictures.

the saddle on the blue one is wrong there is supposed to be a string from the side twists that runs above and that is where you do you're first loop if you know what I mean.

yeah i was lazy and used three strings rather than just 2. I did however get the coil with the same string as the right twists (looking from the back)
