Fly tying - Tie Better

Dear all: I have been captured and enchanted by the Ephemera Vulgata fly as tied by Terenzio Zandri (see https://www.moscofilia.com/ephemera-vulgata.html and https://youtu.be/R_p8tjC6N4s). I have read and re-read the article and watched and re-watched the video (as per the links above), but keep falling short of understanding. I think I have the initial double loop, attaching the hackle, the wings and the thorax...however weaving the abdomen has become an insurmountable issue.
