Tug 168 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 What's the ideal length for a netting needle? I know a lot will be down to personal preference, and also that a longer needle means you can load more twine on without it becoming bulky but I'm not 100% sure what to get hold of. Any experienced net makers have an opinion on the subject? Quote Link to post
