THE
ART OF NETTING, edited by Jules & Kaethe Kliot.
Netting is the technique of making a knotted mesh. This Lacis edition of THE ART

its height in terms of popularity. The original titles of the publications
which have contributed to this book are: Tatting and Netting from
Metropolitan Art Series, c. 1895; Weldon's Practical Needlework, Vol. III,
c.1890; The Young Ladies' Journal Complete Guide to the Work-Table, 2nd Ed.
1885; Needle Craft, May 1913; and Recueil De Plances De L'Encyclopedie

BEAUTIFUL
NETTING, Rita F. Bartholomew.
There are two methods used to tie the basic netting knot. Either method
can be used with heavier materials, but the method use to tie the knot in
netting with string/twine is not as easy to use with the finer crochet or
tatting threads. This book only teaches the method that works well with
the finer threads used in making laces.
Instructions for Diamond Mesh Netting, Square Mesh Netting and Circular
Netting.
Square Mesh Netting usually forms the background for net embroidery. This
type of netting is also seen in volleyball, and tennis nets.
Circular Netting is used to create doilies, shawls, and lace edgings. This
type of netting is used with both cloth centers and net centers. It is also used
to make basketball nets, and shopping bags.
Also covered is how to attach netting to cloth.
Full instructions and 23 patterns are included in this self-published
book. 60 pages, 8.5" x 11" spiral bound. $20.00

NETTING
TO HOLD YOUR HAIR AND OTHER THINGS, Rita Bartholomew.
There are two ways to tie the basic netting knot. This book teaches only
the method that works well with the finer threads used in making lace; what Rita
calls the Lacemaker Knot.
After learning the basic knot, the easiest way to practice it is by creating
squares, rectangles, and circles with diamond-shape meshes, as described in the
chapter, DIAMOND MESH NETTING. CIRCULAR NETTING is used to create circles,
squares and rectangles from the inside out - the center being formed
first. The hair covering and bag patterns in this book use these two types
of netting.
Also covers attaching beads to netting.
Full instructions plus 12 patterns are included in this self-published
book. 64 pages, 8.5" x 11" spiral bound. $20.00
