I love this design! I am making a few for my nephews and sister for fire-making kits.
Just a quick tip for remembering where you are in the design....( helped me!)
1) If it is looping its own color, it is a front door slip-knot (the owner comes in through the front door) loop goes down into the knot.
2) If it is looping another color, it is a back door slip knot (I guess neighbors gotta come in through the back door! lol) loop comes up from behind.
Hope this helps someone else!

As I was just tying a Jellyfish Fob, it occurred to me that a larger Dragon Egg Pouch could be made with the 8-strand base of the Jellyfish Fob. I think I'll start one of those tomorrow.

Of course, as I forgot to mention, I clipped & melted the other four cords.

JD, I finished another one of these tonight (red, white & blue, very cool). I did the top differently. With shorter loops, I did the Lark's Head thing, but took each blue cord and put it through three of the Lark's Heads. The result really cinches the pouch closed more affirmatively than the six strands do.

@getmoney223556 Dude, there is no way that you're intended to be able to follow along at the speed of the video. You absolutely have to pause it. Be patient, and master your frustration. Don't let it make you rude toward a person who has generously given his time and knowledge so you can learn this craft.

@astrofishy35 knot(pun intended) a good idea to use paracord for a sheath. it is very prone to wear and tear due to a sharp bade going against the paracord. highly dangerous
