How to get into your hammock

The Hammock shown in the video above is a King Size Cotton Mexican Hammock.

  1. The aim is to lay across the hammock (not lengthwise).

  2. Grab the edge of the far side of hammock behind you and pull it over your head.

  3. Sit down in the middle of hammock, gently.

  4. Lie back until you are comfortable, now the hammock is perfectly shaped to your body.

Be careful with buttons, earrings, rings and watches etc when you are in the hammock because they could snag and break a thread when pulled.

If this happens quickly grab the broken ends and reweave and re-tie.
