I wanted to make a climbing net for a child's playground. After researching some knots and an eBay purchase of soft rope, here's how I went about it.

At first, I thought this was a stupid idea, but you convinced me. Selfmade with the desired qualities and properties: size, elasticity, material. Just buy the rope and make it in the size you need. One could search for weeks in the shops around to find what one wants. Well done. You encouraged me to reengage in DIY ... Thx a lot!

Thank you for the instructions! Especially feeding the ropes through each other. Custom-sized net, 50x90cm (6x12 ropes; bought 30m rope overall), made by complete novice in 1 1/2 hours :) came out quite symmetrical, even though I made it on the living room floor and not in such a cool workshop as you have. Good to keep in mind that the knots take up a LOT of rope length.

This is perhaps best tutorial I’ve seen, I feel confident I can make this! I’m not making for anyone to climb or I might not be so confident! Seriously thank you for taking the time to teach others what you do so well.

my best bet would be to tie a knot, mark it when it starts and ends, unravel the knot and measure the length of rope between both markings ;)
