Using the chain start for circular or tubular nets is discussed  in the "chain start" thread.  I am indebted to Mr. Willy Landham of the Abaco.com forum for pointing out this technique.  Thanks
  Leave a tail at 3 times the length of the tube you desire to make.  Make the chain.  Closing the chain adds ONE mesh to the total.  Bring end of chain around so that WE is on the left Tie into A, and then B.


Note that when you tie into B you tie like a left handed person so that the  WE comes out in the proper direction,.  (this is not critical)


Now the Working end is on the left and the tail is on the right.  Tie the drop knot and begin the next row.  The anchor (support cord) goes through the meshes on the inside of the circle. Tony
