How to Make a Ghillie Suit With Burlap
- 1). Begin by sliding the netting over your head and deciding where you want the hood to be cut. The Ghillie suit slides over your existing clothes, and you'll have a hole in the middle of the suit for your head to fit through, like a poncho. Use the scissors to cut a slit in the netting large enough for your head.
- 2). Lay the netting out in a large open area and begin cutting the burlap into 1-by-3-inch strips. Cut the entire section of burlap into these strips. This is the most time-consuming part of the process.
- 3). Tie the burlap strips in an overhand knot in every other hole of the netting in horizontal rows, 2 inches apart from each other. Do this to the entire section of netting, and then use the comb to fray the tied strips to give the suit that characteristic furry look.
