Does anybody remember "Netcraft"?

It was a tiny (4"x8"???) catalog that had no end of fishing gear ... including supplies and kits to make all sorts of net products. When a kid (late 60's/early 70's) my dad and I each made a large fishing net. Used green plastic shuttles, but for the life of me I can't remember how I did it.

Your project looks like fun.

Ohhhh ... sheesh ... I just re-read your post. When you said "Just big enough for a teddy" you meant a teddy bear. Honestly, on my first read I thought you were joking about making kinky sleepwear. Too funny! Ha ha ha!!!
