Tie clumps of jute to the netting with simple knots. Grab about 10 or so strands of jute, clump them together, and then tie them to the mesh netting using a simple overhand knot.

There are plenty of camo products for sale out there, but few garments can rival a good homemade ghillie suit.

There is no right answer. There are multiple options and approaches one can take when making a Ghillie Suit. Some may use burlap strips, whereas others will opt for raffia, etc. The best solution depends heavily on the current environment where Ghillie should blend in.

Don't be alarmed if the colors turn out darker right out of the dye. While they're still damp, the dye tends to look darker. As it dries, the color turns lighter. Let the jute dry completely before making a determination about the color. Apply the netting to your suit. Sew knots of mesh netting to the fabric with transparent thread like fishing line. Dental floss, though white, works very well and will not fray. Apply a drop of glue for extra strength. (Shoe glue works the best.) [3] X Research source

In short, Ghillie Suit is a type of clothing meant to maximize the camouflage effect by combining a few key attributes. Mostly used by snipers, a Ghillie suit uses natural colors to allow its user to blend in with the surroundings. On top of that, such a suit has to break up the silhouette to achieve “invisibility”. This is usually done by attaching vegetation. wikiHow is a “wiki,” similar to Wikipedia, which means that many of our articles are co-written by multiple authors. To create this article, 98 people, some anonymous, worked to edit and improve it over time.Start with a base of a green or brown shirt, pants, and hat. Use transparent thread, like fishing line, to sew mesh all over the suit base. Integrate items from your surroundings to keep the best profile. Do this each time you intend on wearing the ghillie, and spend a good 15 to 20 minutes interlacing organic material from the area into the webbing. If you are in a wooded area, for example, attach small branches and leaves to the upper half of the suit and feather it to the bottom with items such as grass or twigs. You want to try to randomize colors to avoid over saturation of one type of color in one spot. Work with clumps of a single color at a time, and place them as randomly on the suit as possible.
