    My DIY 1.9 Ripstop

    I present to you... "The Bywater"!

    She's a good hammock, but I am experiencing a slight ridge under the left knee that no matter how I tried to adjust the ridge line and the angle of the suspension, I could not get rid of.

    Sure looks good. The ridge under the knees is a common problem. How did you whip the ends? Sometimes a different whipping style will fix that problem.

    I whipped them knotty/ war bonnet style. I thought about trying a different whipping. Can't ever remember feeling the ridge on my eno, but it also has sewn channels
