Time to start the helmet weave.
I am fender hitching a netting for the helmet. I believe this is the most accurate patterning based off the pictures I have studied. Here I will present a picture of the helmet and a picture of my tracing of the roping. To me and my past as a naval/pirate re-enactor I can only see this as a fender hitching pattern.
Progress:
So I have taped some line in place and started the hitching. I used glue gun sticks to keep the knots even until I had the first row done and then superglued the first row of knots to the brim of the helmet. Now I am in the slow process of weaving the netting for the helmet.
