Apparently I have much to learn about posting here.
Over the past year I have been listing links to digitized books and
magazines that contain information on netting on my blog (
http://knotsindeed.blogspot.com). I have been pleased at the number I have
found. While most of the books and
more resources for square knotted netting

Netting is thought to be the oldest form of lace. Impressions of Netting
have been found in the surfaces of clay pottery that is many centuries old.
In pre-history, Netting was made using a unique knot that would not
unravel the entire net structure if a tear developed. It could be

regarding Netting the Small Fry. If you have not heard from me in the

It's pretty dirty. Does anyone know how I can clean it without removing it
from the frame?

I'd recommend vacuuming. But first lay some window screen, or plastic canvas
on top, then vacuum. The screening will avoid damaging the embroidery.

We used netting needles at college - look like a rod with a tuning fork
at either end - you need something thinner than a shuttle if you are aiming
for a fine mesh.
It's the mesh stick, not the needle, which controls the size of the holes
in the net. But I think that a shuttle

this is a nice website for making netting. they use a wierd needle
that does the same job as a tatting shuttle. net making would be a
nice use for a shuttle. i don't know how much thread a shuttle will
hold, but this needle holds quite a few rounds.

i will have to buy a netting needle to get a better look at it. a thin
dowel wrapped in thread would do the trick. dowels come in very thin
sizes. it would also save adding on a new thread in the middle of
netting. knots
here are netting needles in just about every size color and shape. i

The Norwegian-style needles are not intended for lace net and will not work.
They're for shopping bags, tennis ball holders, basketball hoop nets, lobster
traps, and other coarse nets. I think it would be a good idea for you to go back
to Rita Bartholomew's site and see how netting is actually
Betty Ann I did not go to the event that you spoke of, but, it sounds very
much like the thread holder netting that I use with my serger sewing machine.
You should check you local sewing machine store and see if they have it.
