wide-a stiff, thin, open-meshed material, used to 
make soft hat frames, to cover wire frames, and in 
bias strips to cover edge wire after it is sewed on

NETEEN OR FLY NET- 
  A stiff open-meshed material-comes in black, 
white, and ecru, one yard wide-a very popular 
material on account of its great pliability and light- 
ness. It is used for blocking frames and copying, 
the lines being much softer than when made with 
buckram. Very durable. 
 
CAPE NET- 
  A light-weight, open-meshed material used for 
blocking and for soft frames. Not as pliable as 
neteen. 
 
WILLOW PLATE---: 
  A coarse straw-like material, light in weight, 
brittle, and very expensive, used in blocking; 
frames are also made from it without blocking.
