Wiring gets easier and better with practice although some good teaching as the basis is crucial. I first learned to wire from Ben Oki, who takes his first wire around the trunk and out two branches, but he takes that wire clear to the end of the branch. This makes pairing branches more difficult and uses too much wire. Boon taught me to continue my wire for 1 and 1/2 turns past the next branch as an anchor, then use figure 3 to pair the anchored branch and the one I just passed, and so on.
It's hard to describe without videos and photos, etc. The best way to learn is to have a teacher. My first Intensive with Boon brought a Monterey Cypress that he wanted me to wire in a two line cascade. I gave him a blank look so he put the first (copper) wire on for me. For two days I put on wire and took wire off. I finally had something he would accept. I learned more about wiring from that one weekend than I had ever learned in any workshop or from any article, photo, or video.
Good luck and keep working on it!
