homemade hammock

does anyone know where I can find a good homemade hammock pattern? I want to sew a nylon one with spreader bar, but can't seem to find any patterns for one on the web. I know the fabric will be about 60 x 90 inches but I don't really know how they sew the fabric to the spreader bar to avoid seam weakness, or how much rope or what kind to use to hang it with, or how to tie the knots. Just wondering! thanks

 

I found an article on how to make a hammock. It looks hard though. Hope it goes well.

 

there's a guide on making hammocks in living on the earth by alicia bay laurel

 

I would like to know if ant body knows of a site to refer me to,for a pattern for a macrame hammock.A single person one,would suffice,but I am really looking to make a two person hammock.Any help would greatly be appreciated,thanks.
