I’m trying to teach myself how to do netting. I understand how to tie the sheet bend. When I tighten up on the knot, the bend is twisted to the left side of the loop. I’m using a #12 seine and am pulling taught while making the knot. Any suggestions?
Here are some hints

You might be putting a twist in the twine as you load the needle. Here’s how to do it correctly

Did I say Thanks? If not, Thanks for the info!
I just made a netted project using cotton seine twine. I noticed that a twist was developing as I was loading the needle. I cut the string and unloaded the needle. I then reloaded the needle (now unattached to the ball) and any twist was lost through the end of the length.
I had already known this and should have mentioned it before but as I age my CRS condition worsens. Tony
