Net Making

[billy_wizz 2]

Thanks for all the help and i think i understand now! and will try one! so a typical pattern might be 10,10,12,12,14,14,16,16,18,18,18,18,18,16,16,14,14,12,12,10,10 ? As the way i start a net is to do 2 full rows of net in a line then collect them together to make the first 2 rows and then fasten them round a guide rope tension holder for one end!

Yes that would give you a shaped net

Thanks to everyone for there help and advise i have just made my first shaped net! and will make a few more and give them a test to see if they work for me! Now if i wanted to make a few 3 ft ones for tight spots in hedges would i make fewer rows of 18 meshes in the middle or start with more meshes as in going perhaps 14 meshes out to 18 meshes than back into 14? Thanks again everybody for all the help!

You could leave out the 3 middle rows but I make all my nets the same size then when I reach in the netbag I know what Im getting out rather than looking for a specific net
