GAV*81 15 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Nice net I make purse nets and wouldn't mind making a few stop nets about 15 yards or so, how do you start a long net because with a purse net you knit onto the ring so I wasn't sure where to start with a long net,cheers.

You can start a long net the exact same way but just keep knitting row after row, till you have your desired length of netting then just cut off the ring. TC Quote Link to post
The one 8,506 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Or start it on a large key ring and it just slides off 1 Quote Link to post
Tiercel 6,986 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) It never ceases to amaze me when ever I mention cutting the net off a ring how people are totally against it, and will go to all sorts to avoid doing it. It takes just over a minute to knit a row and a fair bit longer to unthread the meshes off a split ring or what ever. Never seen the point myself. Edited to add: It's the same with starting new net. The sensible and quickest way to do it is to carry on knitting once you have finished one net, do an extra 10 or so rows then just cut the net, so you do not have to restart when making the new net. Will people do it? Will they heck. TC Edited May 11, 2013 by tiercel 3 Quote Link to post
