I use bug socks made by Randy Smith (aka Papa Smurf), one made with Tulle (very delicate but my favorite to use because of the weight-2 oz) and another with heavier netting (5 oz). For $65 you can customize the length and depth so it was a no-brainer for me since I don't sew. He's great to work with also.

I recently made a "Fronkey" inspired bug net. I've tested it a few times and really love it. I got my bug/no-see-um netting from ZPacks and as far as I could find it's the lightest. The Zpacks fabric has a higher bolt width than any other netting, so following Fronkey's instructions, you can buy half the amount and fold the top seam over, which this guy did here:
