Many nets come with the frill already attached, but to make one, cut four long strips of net each 12cm wide and the length of the inner side hem. Join two of the strips together and fold the resulting strip lengthwise to enclose the short seam. Then fold in the two long edges and make two rows of gathers along that edge. Give the curtains a double 1.5cm hem along the bottom and up the outside edges.
Press down the top hem to form the 2.5cm casing and the 2.5 heading, or attach heading tapes. The inside edge is the important one. Draw the frill up on its gathering threads to this length. Lay the frill parallel to the curtain, about a centimeter in from the edge and starting it 2.5cm from the top so that it doesn’t get in the way of the casing. Sew the two together, right sides the curtain over the frill’s raw edges. Press down the seam.
