    Loooking for camo material

    I am looking for some camo material for making a hammock.

    I would like some riptop Breathable nylon. I do not want anything coated.

    I would also like to find it in 1.1 or 1.7 weight (undecided on weight now).

    I can not find it on the OWF or Quest Outfitters.

    Does anyone know where to get some of this?

    SeattleFabrics has it in a 1.1 uncoated. therainshed.com has the same fabric, cheaper than Seattle Fabrics though. $6.50 a yard. I have some of that fabric, it would make a good hammock.

    Thank you for the feedback. I am not actually sure of the color I want yet. I was thinking camo but am not sure at this time. The problem is that there are a limit amount of colors to chose from.

    Rockywoods has ACU and Woodland stated as 1oz per yard. Probably 1.1

    Good, lightweight ripstop. $4.50/yd. I've ordered a lot from them. And they also have Coyote brown 1.1 untreated.

    Coyote brown looks like a nice color too. Interesting.

    my dual mode bridge hammock is a double layer hammock made of one layer of the DIY 1.1 material in camo, and one layer of it in coyote. Nice stuff, but ravels really quickly. Hot knife is a must.

    Update, the camo from TRS and SF is not 1.1, it is the heavier material. Like a 1.9 maybe.
