Macrame Hammock

A macrame hammock is a valuable addition to the home, a perfect place to relax after work. The feeling of being suspended in the air makes it fun to use. Modern macrame hammocks are made of two lengths of rope comprised of simple half knot or square knot. Having an idea of the basic knots is enough to get you started in making one yourself.

This creative art is strong but also very beautiful, attractive and novel. To learn the art of making macrame hammocks is quite easy but if you don't want to do just that, you can get various types at art shops.

Hammocks can be very beneficial to your health; the sense of relaxation it creates is quite exciting. Since it is not a sheet of solid fabric, air circulation around, under and through the macrame gives you the opportunity to feel nature at its best--cool!

Macrame hammocks can be suspended by using poles. I'll advise you ensure that they are well fixed, this is to help prevent accidents. It will be great if you can make the suspended hammock hold the weight of at least two persons. You can set it in the yard, balcony or deck.
