New Net Done

[Nobby 65]

I got this one finished this week its agouti long net twine i read some things on here about the twine so i tried a few things some worked some not someone said they had friction breaks pulling knots in so i knew to take it easy pulling knots in but still had two friction breaks no big deal knot in and away again lol .I also put the net on a pole to knit the selvage that worked well much easier i tried to space the net colour so it would be easier to sort the bag and poles out lol not sure how well its worked i will see what its like when its rigged up .

i think about 60yd of net maybe a bit more lol it was around 15ft of net per needle i did it 15 meshes deep wish i gone 14 as it looks canny deep with the selvage on if i make any more i will go 14 meshes used 12z nylon for selvage i might use 10z if i do another i am still happy with it just need some poles now

What size mesh is it? A net is at it's best in my opinion around the 60 inches mark stretched for a 4.25" mesh thats 14 meshes with the 2 half selvedge meshes or for a 4" mesh (which is a little small for a spun poly net as the twine does not stretch like nylon) 15 meshes including selvedges.
