Final result, the thing swallowed me up whole, but did stretch over the hammock quite well. If I had the width down to about 7 foot rather than 9, would have been good for a loose top sock.... didn't want to cut it as I use for a tarp. With a couple ties halfway to the head side, and a small spreader around face side, should work quite well. It was about 65 degrees, windy, but couldn't tell.
This weekend I'll try to reproduce with photos.
