jenksi87 3 Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 i know i'm not answering the question but in a way i suppose i am. i have switched from nylon nets to polyester and i will never go back, much much better. yellow with red drawstrings so there easy to see. less tangles. just an all round better net. slightly more expensive but if your knitting them yourself so it shouldnt be too much off a difference. i got mine off old blueeye on here. perhaps he could give you some info?
