I do not really understand what you mean. Are you talking about the bottom part and how it folds backwards?

your sidewalls arent tight enough. and just go through one diamond on the mesh inbetween sidewall holes, but once or twice on the head go through 2 diamonds between sidewall holes. right where you want the pocket.

i think he means when he doubles up in 2 places next to each other and it bunches up and looks bad.
i just double up, then not, then double up again and it fixs it

if you mean your mesh at the end curling, it's because you strung it with the rough side inwards where the ball will touch. If you flip the mesh over and restring it, it won't curl. If you mean your mesh bunching up where you doubleup, just make it much tighter and that should fix it.
EDIT: and btw, nice pocket FamousAmos

i think it is because you are interlocking and doing it regular at the same time so the mesh is scrunched between the interlocking knots. i really dont know how do describe it...

tighten the sidewalls and double up less, and cleaner.

tighter sidewalls and pound the mesh more. its just not broken in enough so the string hasnt pulled on the diamond. once you pound it the ugliness will go away and you should be able to double up less. or when you double up, instead of going under-over, go under-under, if you get what im saying.
