Making a hammock: Do not use straight sticks on either end of the fabric, nor a tight-weave or net-like open-mesh fabric. They will make the hammock uncomfortable, (1) by preventing the spine from curving naturally in "hammock sleeping position" and (2) by being inelastic or digging into flesh.   kellyjones00 (593)

Sleeping comfortably in a hammock: Lie diagonally with the head slightly below the level of the feet, then bend the knees. A pillow is not needed.   kellyjones00 (593)

Sleeping in a hammock in winter: sew a blanket flat to the fabric to keep the back of the body warm, then tuck the bedclothes around the body like a cocoon.   kellyjones00 (593)

Making a hammock: Attach two strong metre-long sticks to either end of a strong, body-length piece of material. Tie the hammock up in a sunny place out of the wind and rain.   kellyjones00 (593)
