Customer Project: 1.7 MTN XL w/ Knotty Mod

by DIY gear

• OVERVIEW
• HOW DO I MAKE IT
• MATERIALS

• I used 1.7 oz MTN XL to make a simple gathered end with knotty mods on each end. For the suspension, I used Amsteel continuous loops and whoopie slings attached with soft shackles and a ridge line.
• Sewed a rolled hem on the long sides, then a 2" rolled hem for each end channel. Added the continuous loops to each end. I then set it up and marked where I wanted the the knotty mods and rolled it over sewing in a Chanel for the shock cord. One side of the shock cord is stitched down in place and then a cord lock is placed on the other end for cinching.
