That time again to get a few Trammels rigged, weather permitting of course.

Can you buy the outers already made up

Not in square mesh I'm afraid.

Looks good, are you knitting the square mesh 4 deep and folding over the headline mate? Edited to add, is that a white Loomis needle?

I'm doing them separate, 2 deep, once stitched together the reinforced edges act like a line, saves adding any cord. The reason for this style is that it saves any hassle sourcing polyester braid as if a nylon braid is used it will shrink slightly after a wetting, which upsets the rig (stitching). The needle is a Norwegian Formfinder Brand, near enough the same as the American Loomis needles.
