    Bias Tape

    Hi there!

    Where do you order bias tape for tarps and hammocks?
    here they only have satin and cotton bias tape. but looking for something more suited for outdoor use.
    Any recomendations?

    I have never used bias tape, but recently saw a good tutorial on making your own out of technical fabrics: https://youtu.be/ao4pQlsD3Ik

    Most of us use Grosgrain. Bias Tape might be a lot more work than value.
    Bias tape is just strips of fabric cut on the biss. Very stretchy and works great on rounded edges. For my tarps I use Grosgrain Ribbon, Polyester.
