    Indoor drying time for brazilian hammock

    Hey how long is it supposed to take to dry a 12ft long and 5ft wide Brazilian hammock? I live in the north, so my only option is to hang it up indoors in the basement. The hammocks I'm interested in are around 80% cotton and 20% polyester and are from Seasidehammocks.

    edit: drying them after washing.

    Mine is 100% cotton. I’ve machine washed it 3 times and hung outside on sunny days. Each time it shrinks noticeably. It always stretches back to its original shape after a few nites of use. Avoid winter time washings. If you already did then tumble dry on no heat. The 20% polyester may save you from too much shrinkage.
    left lay born, left lay bred and when I die I'll be left lay dead.

    Depending on how warm the weather is, I guess around 5-6 hours. But I'm not sure, don't take my word for it fully.
