micky 3,325 Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 I intend to make the above Net ……...100 self set , what do I need and where do I acquire it , it will not be used daytime and I would prefer the larger sized Mesh. Quote Link to post
smithie 2,443 Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 Do you want sheet or to knitt? Do you know what mesh size if you knitt? Why 100 yd and not 2x 50 yd net or 4 x 25 yd 50s will be easier to handle than a 100 and you can have 1 each side if the jacket so not as bulky.. If I have any end pins left you can have some. But I'll not be looking any day soon. Quote Link to post

Mr Wilkes 2,981 Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 Spun poly.... Engels twine , 20/9 double knit @4 1/2” mesh. Or 20/12 single knit, Just my opinion. Quote Link to post
lllluke1 329 Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 20/12 from fourteenacre is what I make mine out of. Never made a 100 yard net, much prefer to make 25 yard nets and add them together to make 100 yards 1 Quote Link to post
