Handmade Hammocks

Description

There are no open sections for this class.

Please login or create a new profile to be notified when a new section becomes available.


Hammock making is fast, easy, fun, and so much more comfortable than sleeping on the cold, hard, bumpy ground. This class is designed for those who wish to learn how to make their own camping hammocks. They are ultra-light weight, making them great for backpackers

Supplies needed:

  • 4 yards of non-stretchy, satin-like material.   
    • Walmart often has it for $1.50 a yard in their bargain area.  Or you can find the “Princess Satin” for $2 a yard. For a more deluxe version, you can bring rip-stop or heavier material.
