Create a relaxing retreat for yourself right in your own backyard with the Twin Oaks SilkSpun Rope Hammock package. This rope hammock is sized right for sharing because it will accommodate two people and up to 450 pounds of weight. It features top-quality materials like white oak spreader bars finished in natural linseed oil and super-durable SilkSpun rope. This rope is the same material found on other highly popular hammock brands like Pawley's Island. Solution-dying means it will not fade in the sun and the materials are mold- and mildew-resistant. This hammock lets you enjoy the comfort of cotton and the strength of polyester.

The Material:This SilkSpun rope was created to simulate both the strength and the softness of silk. It is twisted from a fiber especially manufactured for the outdoor market. This yarn has hundreds more filaments per inch than our standard rope creating a denser smoother result. Solution-dying results in longer-lasting fade-resistant rope. The silky smooth SilkSpun product has an unsurpassed weather endurance and is mildew- and mold-resistant.

The Construction:The traditional-style rope hammock has been reconstructed to increase comfort and durability. The body of the SilkSpun hammock features 50% more rows of rope and 50% more stitches per row than standard rope hammocks. This creates a bed with well over twice the standard number of stitches for a much closer weave. The result is added comfort and support.

Available in several versatile finishes this heavy-duty 12-gauge steel stand is capable of supporting any spreader bar hammock measuring 12 to 15 feet and up to 450 pounds of weight. The powder-coated finish is visually attractive and extremely weather-resistant. It assembles quickly without tools.

About Twin Oaks HammocksAt Twin Oaks we believe quality starts at the beginning - in every fiber of every rope and in every grain of every log. We start with yarn specially chosen for weather-resistance and colorfastness and twist it into durable rope in all colors of the rainbow.

Our spreader bars begin as locally-harvested white oak logs which we mill and kiln-dry on site for well-seasoned outdoor use. The completed spreaders are hand-brushed with natural linseed oil and air-dried to maintain the beauty of the wood grain.

Our macrame harnesses are made by hand and carefully measured and trimmed so that every hammock we make is stable and comfortable. We weave each rope hammock ourselves using techniques and equipment designed to be easy on the body and to minimize waste. Finally at least 40 expertly tied bowline knots complete a hammock that is sturdy and attractive.
