So my daughter wanted an orange and brown (black?) BoM Amazonas hammock for her room, so I bought her the one we found at EMS last spring. We took it down for the winter to make room for her Xmas tree (she had a small one in her room) and put the hammock in a drawer.

Well.... 4 months later, one of the rope ends looks like this:



That's 4 months of being shuffled around by a 7 year old in a sock drawer for you but now, the hammock is pretty much worthless, 3 strings are really tight (from being wrapped around the others) so if you try to put a load on it, it won't be pretty.

For now, she's using mine (I own the exact same one for hanging in the yard) but would really like to know how to fix this one. I called EMS, and they don't stock them anymore. I like this hammock for the material, it's more forgiving, and more comfortable than 1.1/1.7/1.9 I've seen used, and it's a lot better on the wallet for kid use (especially the "uninitiated" friends of said 7 year old)

The other side, is pretty much fine.. 1 or 2 strings out of place, but nothing horrible



Any help would be appreciated.
