This fyke net is a replica of nets once used in the Pennsylvania Dutch area of Eastern Pa. where I live.
That's a nice looking net. I have been looking at your stuff on Knotical Arts too.
At the moment, for me, netting is quite a good thing to do because I can have a net lying around the house and pick it up as and when I have a few minutes spare to add one or two rows - it doesn't need me to change into dirty clothes, or unpack a load of tools.
Now I need to think of some useful things to make. Just out of interest, what sort of cordage do people use? I'm currently practising with jute garden twine (very cheap to buy) but may not be strong enough for larger projects. What would you use, for example, for a hammock? And how much might you need? It's surprising how much cordage you get through making even a small net.
