Scope note
A mesh fabric made from threads or cords that are knotted or woven at regular intervals. Nets were originally made by hand, but are now typically machine woven. Net may range from a lace-like fabric to coarse nets used for sports equipment and hunting. For the objects consisting of meshed arrangements of threads, cords, or ropes that have been twisted, knotted, or woven together at regular intervals, use "nets (objects)."
