From fishing nets to beautiful lace, people have made netting for centuries, with the skills handed down from generation to generation. Netting used to be as common as knitting or crochet.

To help you learn to net, Rita Bartholomew has included over 400 photos. These photos work with the text in explaining the basic techniques of netting, the equipment used, some common problems, and how to increase and decrease. There is also a list of sources for netting supplies.

Because netting patterns for a beginner are hard to find, she has included 30 simple patterns for bags, dishcloths, snoods or hairnets, and headbands that are designed to work with string, yarn, and 1/8-inch-wide ribbon.

Come join with netters from years gone by; enter the wonderful world of netting, and enjoy this ancient art.

Rita F. Bartholomew learned to net doilies from her grandmother over 50 years ago. Over the years she has taught classes and individuals how to net. She started Knots Indeed over 15 years ago to introduce the art of netting on the internet. More recently she has created online classes that use videos to teach people how to net. She is a member of the New England Lace Group, the International Organization of Lace, Inc, and the International Guild of Knot Tyers. Her goal is to have people ask, "What are you netting?" instead of "Is that tatting?"
