That's looking really nice- not that there was a lot wrong with the first offering. ;)
Is that your first real attempts at "barbs over the eye" tying and you have not used the method before? If so you made a fantastic job using a method I have tried a lot but not yet mastered!
Congratulations Sir, you have just added another trick to your bag. :D

See? Now whenever I try that, I end up with the barbs about half the length I wanted. The next one usually has them about 2 times to long. If I could just meld them together.....
