    I had forgotten to ask if there was a tutorial or template you followed for the hammock?

    Good looking lightweight rig. How are you going to backpack that stand though?

    No tutorial/template. Just layed in the hammock and marked approximately where my feet/head were in relation to the hammock edges. Then put binder clips at those points and pulled the edges out while my wife layed in it. Pinned the zippered side and sewed. Then brought it back to the stand, repeated the process, pinned, and sewed.

    As for the color, I'm lucky she didn't go for her first choice-- sunflower yellow.
