====== Redes ======

Nets can be made either by making knots along precut lengths of lire
or by ‘knitting’ mesh row by row. They are not only useful for fishing.
A Gil net can also be hung between trees to catch birds and a purse net,
made from twine can e placed over animal burrows. Use the same
techniques to make a hammock from strong twine.

===== Red Hilo Vertical =====

Make this from parachute cords or from two thicknesses of twine.
Parachute cord consists of an inner core of fine line whitin an outer
core. Pull the fine inner line out and cut it into manegeable and equal
lengths (or cut lengths of thinner string). Their length will determine
the depth of your net wich can be about 3/8 that of the length of line.

Decide how wide you want your net and set two poles that distance apart.
Tie a length of parachute cord outer (or thicker twine) between the two.
Cut a piece of wood about 3\_5 cm across. Use this as a gauge to space
out the thinner vertical threads(inner core).

===== Bolsa de red =====

Another use for netting is to make stuff sacks / net bags, to contain,
organise equipment e.g. clothes etc. A net bag starts with a foundation
ring as shown in figure 4.2.4, a loop of nylon cord onto which the first
row of loops are tied. These loops are formed around the mesh stick and
locked in place using a series of clove hitches. Note, the tail of the
first clove hitch needs to be about 1m long as it will be used to join
each mesh row into a ring, the number of loops formed determines the
bags width. When the required number of meshes minus one have been
formed the head and tail cords are tied together using a reef knot,
re-enforced by tying an overhand knot in the nylon cord. The final mesh
is then formed by joining the head and tail cords together using an
overhand knot. In this example the foundation ring is formed from ten
loops. The next row of meshes is tied onto the first row using a basic
sheet bend, again the final mesh is formed by tying the head and tail
cords together using an overhand knot. This is repeated until bag
reaches the required depth. The final row is re-enforced by forming a
double row by knotting the cord back round the final row. Finally a
nylon draw string is feed round the top row.
