this is how i made mine,
its not the traditional way to make one, however its the easiest and fastest way.

buy this kit from the link below....£60

http://www.rifle-cases.co.uk/Ghillie-Suits.asp?cat=&model=Tracker-Kit-Leafy-Green-TKL

you are going to need an old pair of dmp trousers and a jacket (with hood)which is on the baggy side.

when you get the kit there are instructions on how to tie the strands to the netting.

you need to lay flat your trousers and jacket on the floor(front facing down)
with  a pair of scissors you need to cut two panels out of the netting that will fit each leg from about 4inches from the bottom to the top of your
back pocket
then you need a big panel that will cover the whole back of your jacket (excluding hood and arms)
another two panels for each arm
lastly a panel for the hood.

when applying the camo, hang the netting from a washing line, starting at the bottom, making your way up.(ensure you have it hanging the right way up,and the right way round)

once you have completed all the panels, using a big needle and using spare strands sew them on to the garments.

the best way i found was to fold one strand in two, sew through the garment then cut it off, you will then be able to tie the panels to the garment using a good old fashioned granny knot.
the ties should be one inch apart, do it in stages, don`t try and do all the ties first as it gets alittle confusing.

i hope this is of some help.

its alittle hard trying to explain in words, if your not clear on anything  just let me know.
