I've done quite a bit of netting over the last few years and like a previous post stated, it's addictive.
A book that I can't rate too highly is, 'Net Making, Charles Holdgate, Emerson Books, 1972, SBN# 87523-180-2. This book was written as a how-to-teach manual for school teachers, etc. I believe it was written in England, but I'm not positive. It takes you from learning the basic netting knot, through more and more involved projects, each project teaching you a new technique or two. If you can understand the English language (even the way you guys speak it
) you can teach yourself netting from this book.
I have seen it lately in some of the used book sections of places like Amazon and it sells for about $10 US.
If you want to teach yourself netting, this is the book to buy.
