A lot of the people who make soft shackles professionally for sailing, slack lining, etc. use the button knot that Myers describes because it is so reliable. It is a challenge to learn though.
Check out Jeff Myers' video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk_kjzEWICc
I've used this method on an overnight hang with zero problems and a lot less "fiddliness" than a standard soft shackle.
Anyone ever tried to use a soft shackle loop through the sewn channel of a hammock, so that the channel would be gathered into a wider loop? Was thinking of trying that to make a flatter lay... thought I'd seen it somewhere on here but it's a tough thing to search for.
