Default Crochet Boat Fenders - Almost OT

Ignore the naysayers Andrew; traditional fenders have a saltiness about
them that is noticeably lacking in the more modern plastic versions, even
if they have some downsides. These types of fenders can be just the thing
to set off ye olde time craft ^^

Ive sent you a couple of jpegs of how to make a cross pointed fender which
starts off with a whipping at the head. These arent too hard to make and
you should be able to knock one over in an evening with a six pack.

Thank you for the information. I'll also certainly look out for the 'The
Ditty Bag Book' by Frank Rosenow that you referenced.
