If I got a pair of fishnet tights & cut them using nail varnish on the cut - would they fray do you think?

[KatyMac]

They would, wouldn't they?

Can you buy silver net that you can cut?

what are you trying to make?

A pretty delicate snood for DD for a dance comp

I found some silver net on ebay but I wondered if they tights might stretch better

Can you knit?

I found this on Ravelry

It's a blank page......do I have to join?

Would knitted be too course tho'

I ideally wanted a lace one

Try this link instead, although there was a proper photo on the first link.

It is very similar to the snoods on the Wiki link on your other thread, is that not what you wanted?

They are a bit rough

think evening wear maybe?

Try looking for a fine crochet pattern then, that will be even finer than using tights (but stronger and so will hold her hair better).

Maybe yes

But I can sew, I can't crochet or knit

Is something like this too heavy?

You can buy stretch net, I'm just not having any luck in finding any that would be quite suitable online!

That does look better - I guess if you did it in a none stretch fibre (embroidery silk?) it would look quite good - I may email to see if she takes commissions

I've been thinking silver because Black won't show up on her hair but I am thinking about the green of her skirt - which could look very striking

You have just reminded me of my skint days - if I laddered a pair of tights, a dab of clear varnsih would stop the ladder. So it does work.

Found something more like it
