for just getting started, I would say you are doing good. you will develop your chenille wrapping skills in short order. that mylar type chenille is some tricky stuff to get right, alot of times it seems to not be thick enough to hide the center string. I like nylon chenille and tend to wrap it fairly tight, while crowding the wrap before it. there are some great tyers on here, and some are good teachers of the craft, so you are in the right place.
