Abstract
A method of making a mechanical fastening system. The mechanical fastening system is attachable to a complementary receiving surface. The method comprises the steps of providing an elastically extensible substrate and stretching the substrate. Prongs are applied to the substrate while the substrate is stretched. The prongs are joined to the substrate at a base and extend outwardly from the substrate along a shank to an engaging means. The substrate is released, whereby it is allowed to contract.
