after you get your first row on and start your second you need to tie a widiner. this alows the net to opin in a tolat circle rather than make a fish net that you use to land fish.
you start a normal mesh then after you finish the knot you then do the proces agian to make it. this is the hardest part because the holes are a half a mesh wide. when you finish a full mesh
it is much easier. altho the widiners are still hard. the pattern for the widiners is. i don't know if this is right way to tie it but it works
1st row 0
2nd row every 1
3rd row every other 1
4th row every third
5th row every fourth
here is the site were it showed me about widiners
