Hi all,
In the process of making my first DIY tablecloth hammock, and I accidentally ordered a tablecloth that was too long!
I'm planning on hanging this indoors for now, and I already have eye hooks at 56" for a smaller hammock, I'd like to reuse the same eye hooks if possible.
So the tablecloth I got was the 90x156 crinkle taffeta from tableclothsfactory.
I have some amsteel to whip it with, and whoopies for suspension.
What is the best way to shorten it?
My walls are 11' apart, and the hooks are 56" high.
From the hammock calculator, it looks like things would be better with a 108" ridgeline, which works out to a 12' length instead of the current 13'.
So could I just knot the tablecloth 6" in at each side? How would that effect the whipping procedure? (was going to accordion fold, then amsteel around it a few times).
Thanks for the help, and sorry about the newbie question
