Here's a better video of the chain knot.

Alison, thanks for the excellent suggestion. Do you use this on really wide pieces of row cover or only the narrow (one-bed) widths?

Hmmmm.....Here's step by step making a crocheted chain: http://crochet.about.com/od/learnbasics/ss/stchain.htmImagine the row cover as the yarn (your left hand is gathering the width of the row cover as you walk forward into a thick "rope") and your hand and arm as the crochet hook. Does that help?Alison

Subject: Re: [Market-farming] Best way to store row coverSay what? Never crocheted or even tatted.
Alison, I could not visualize how this worked. Could you explain again or would it be easier (and ok) for me to just call you?
Thanks,

We store ours like my grandfather stored tobacco canvas - we "chain" it. Make a loop at one end, put your hand through it, grab out and catch the canvas, pull it through. Keep chaining until you have it all done. Just like doing crochet. Then, just hang up the chains. When again needed, just anchor the initial "looped" end, pull on the "tail" end, and it unchains nicely.

Subject: [Market-farming] Best way to store row cover
I have been using row cover for the first time this year in my high tunnels. Now the temperature is getting much warmer and I am thinking about putting it away. What is the best way to store it? Do I get some pipe and reroll it? Do I fold it up? I can do it either way easily, I just wondered what other people find is the best way to store it to be reused the next fall or spring? I have over 500 feet of it in 50 foot pieces.
Thanks!
