A nice easy project for an overcast/rainy afternoon. Thanks for the tutorial! I used 3mm cords and that worked out fine. I also adjusted the top to be a square knot loop since I only had two rings and didn't want to buy another pack for one more lolol. I followed the advice of another commenter for avoiding waste cord and shortened the cord lengths by 50 cm. Another tip would be to not pre-cut everything as weird as that sounds. I only pre-cut my 2 350cm, 2 200cm, and 4 160 cm cords. From there, I would just measure the inner cords as you go and double that length and that will be the length that you add each row. Then you can eyeball your length and add or decrease rows as needed (I ended up adding one more row). This also lets you use any longer bits for the gather knots you do later or the small bits you might add to fill out the fringe instead of having it go to waste. Lastly, instead of the fringe, I added beads and square knotted them in place and then combined out a small fringe. Based it off a reddit post of someone's hammock that they made from this video 😊

I made this and it turned out perfectly! Thanks so much for such a fabulous tutorial

2nd time I’ve made this, really good instructions. I made the gaps 3cm and make it different side lengths Came up brilliant- Thankyou

There is a lot of waste with these measurements and instructions. I added 2 more pairs of strands to the sides AND cut off excess from the middle strands and used in the sides and still had a lot of waste. I suggest shortening the center strands and adding at least 3 pair for f additional strands to the sides…maybe even four. I used approximately 90 cm for each one.

I appreciate this. Thank you!

Awesome tutorial!! It makes a hammock on the smaller side so if you make it, just keep that in mind :)

This was a great video !! Your instructions are so very clear. Thank you so much for sharing 😊😊😊

Too good thanks made gift for my friends 🎉

Thanks for the easy tutorial!

That you so much for this tutorial!!!

Que lindo

So nice! Still learning and really want to make this. I need to order cord, are you able to tell me the total length I need? Thank you!

Your tutorial is perfect and I could follow along all the way through!!! My first project! Can I add beads if I wish? Thank you for sharing !!!

Thank you so much for saying this 😊 Yes definitely you can add beads to it, I think on the outer edges where you are adding on the new ropes with larks head knot it will be nice to have rope beads in there. Good luck!

Que fofura!!!😍😍😍

Beautiful! I only have 3mm cord. Can I use the same lengths or do I need to alter somehow? I would like to make this for my son’s birthday.

What is the full length of the piece? And what is it displayed

If I’d wanted to make it bigger could i add more individual ropes ?

This is amazing! Is there any way to hide the ends instead of making them a fringe? I’d love to make this for my kids but it’ll be too much of a hazard for them with the ends.

Thank you! After you attach the ropes with a double half hitch knot, I suggest making another double knot to secure it even further and then cut the ropes short. That should keep it in place ☺️

Hello! How big is the finished project? I'd like to make a smaller one for fruit ☺️

Wow!! ❤ how much cord length would I need for this???

i don’t want one this big ( making it for my parrot) how would i make it smaller ??

Hola! Podrás traducirlo al español? Gracias!! Bendiciones

Hi..wats the total size of the hamock?

Are the starter ropes those measurements before they are tied with a lark’s head knot?

Is there a reason you use large wooden rings? I only have smaller ones and I’m wondering if that would make a difference

There will be no difference :) I made it with small wooden rings

Hello! I have a question, I really need help with. I am trying to do one that is bigger, but I am having trouble with the measurements because like would I have to do half more length then ALSO add 1 extra strand per like row?

I don’t suppose you have any alternative suggestion instead of a hanging rack? This will be my second project and I’m just not ready to spend $50 for something I don’t really have room for…

I used push pins in the wall and adjusted as needed and it worked fine for me, but I just found a garment rack online at Target for $9 the other day so you can check that out if you’re interested!

Is the length of cord, the length of the full cord or is that the length of the cord folded in half?...if that makes sense.. 😄

Is that the total length in centimeters and then you attach them to the loop with them and it's, their length is cut and half?

@SummerMacrame

Hiya. this is the total length that you need to cut. After you have cut the cords, you then fold them in half and attach them. Thank you for watching!

For any of you who have made this exactly as taught, (suggested cord, cord lengths, no modifications) can you please tell me the finished dimensions? Thank you =)

👍👍👍👍💫

How should i go if i wanted to make this double in size? Should I just double the number of ropes?

@SummerMacrame

Yes I think that would work, but I’m not 100% sure! Add the double number of ropes but also increase the length of the ropes or you will run short. Good luck 💕
