I bought this to make my 11′ hammock, and I love it. It’s incredibly comfortable, feels nice to the touch, packs down great, costs 1/2 the price of buying a typical name brand hammock, and it weighs less.

My friends with name brand hammocks often call me names, and say that they’re slightly jealous because my set up cost 1/2 as much, packs down smaller, and weighs less. Be prepared to be hated because of your beauty.

Is this fabric sold by the yard or by the foot?

Sold by the yard.

I’ve slept every night in the 4 yards of this beautiful Moroccan Blue I received weeks ago. No sewing! Just gathered ends and looped through bights to hang, amazingly easy. Raw edges seem unlikely to unravel, don’t even look bad.

If I want to experiment with different lengths prior to sewing my hammock by whipping the ends, will that make it more difficult to sew the end channels after it is all crinkled up from being whipped?

Is this lighter, heavier or about the same as the nylond 1.7 wide?
Dave Gantz –
It is roughly the same – each are about 1.6-1.7oz per square yard.

Is the nylon material post-treated in any way? If it has been post-treated to show DWR, for example, what treatment has it undergone (PFC-free, halogen-free, eco-friendly…)?
