purse net help

[fergie 0]

I can make a purse net but i watched somone doing on a dvd last night and his are as follows

1-run 11 loops

2nd run 13 loops

3rd to 18th run 15 loops

19th run 13 loops

20th run 12 loops

21st run 11 loops

 

This seemed to be a very big purse net so how do you configure your nets.

These where for rabbits

cheers fergie

you can shorten or leghten your nets by adding rows (if thats the correct word, having a mental block!) or widen them by adding more meshes. i do mine with 9 on the ring, step it out every row by one till you reach 18. knit another 2 rows of 18 then reduce back to 9 before casting off.

 

if you mean the nets big as in the length, supose that depends on the size of mesh board you use aswell. i use a 2 1/8 inch and the 20 rows i knit is plenty big enough for most holes but i allso knit some slightly smaller ones for tighter holes were i need the net to purse up fast before it gets snagged on something.
