I want to make a summer sock like the one Dutch sells. I originally had one for my netless hammock (which I eventually sold like an idiot) Now I am in the process of making a hammock setup for a friend and he wants the similar sock because he like the ability to spin it around to block out the wind. I can't seem to find any patterns or info on how to make one. Every design I see is for making each side from the same material and then hemming it along the ridgeline. I was assuming this wouldn't work so great with fabrics made from 2 different materials, especially when you want the netting to be on top, and the argon on the bottom. Anyone have an idea how to go about making similar in design? My thought is that I would need to taper the fabric on one end, but I am not exactly sure by how much to make sure it covers the hammock but isn't too tight. Ideally it would be great to get it on the first go instead of experimenting with fabric until I get it right. Thanks for any info you can give.
