Best net making guide?

[bobcullen79 1,495]

HI all, been meaning to get round to learning to knit nets. I know its supposedly easy and only 2 knots.... But is there a piece of text/diagrams/video that a high percentage of people have learnt from and been succesful. I would rather it been in the form of a book, as all the other bits Ive seen have`nt been in depth enough for me. Ta for any replys.

The knots are a bit big due to the twine I'm using - I don't have a light sabre handy like the lads

But for first time, am more than chuffed.

_{There's a video on here somewhere and thats how I learned. From my experience; dont start off thinking it will be easy, it wont - you will make mistakes but just keep at it and you'll get there eventually.}

These blokes are hillarious. They break the process down into simple easy to follow steps. They didn't mention anything about the calouses you build up on your pinkies - they just keep banging on about the imporance of a tight ring and the requirement for a purple light sabre. Very instructive .
