Corina,
Love this, going to make it as soon as I’m done with Halloween crap, but quick question: how did you hang it?
I had my husband hang it :/ lol Here is this link I found through Google http://www.ehow.com/how_5007699_hang-toy-hammock.html But I do know my husband used screws.. but I would only recommend that if you know there is a board or whatever under the wall. lol. Sry I am not much help 😉
I would put a small cup holder hook in the corner and one on each wall. The board in the wall (stud) needs to be behind the hook; or the weight of the toys could pull the whole works to the floor! Great pattern! I was planning to buy one for my grandson, but now I can make it! Many Thanks, Corina!
I am not able to copy and past this pattern to a word document. how do I get it to copy and past so I can print it out?
Thanks,
Dian
Use the “clean print” available at the bottom of the post.
What brand/color yarn did you use? I’ve got several people that want ones made with this specific color. Thanks!
I am not sure what the exact color is but I made them with Red Heart Super Saver. 🙂
Corina,
I am trying to make you hammock out of plarn. I will let you know how it goes. But I showed someone and they saw the cross at the bottom of the page (you might also like this). I would like the link to the originator of this pattern -it disappeared before I could click on it. Thanks for your help, Joanne
The cross was designed by Crochet Chiq 🙂 http://crochetchiq.blogspot.com/2013/03/cross-bangle.html
FYI…I arm knitted one of these as well.
