Question
David Elliott –
Dutch,
Is Alpha Direct a good choice for a fitted UQ on a bridge hammock? I have a couple of Peoples Bridge Hammocks that I made for the amateur astronomers that helped us measure darkness levels in gaining Dark Sky Park recognition for Watoga State Park. The hammocks are polyester, printed by you, and they will likely be used as back yard hammocks. I want to make fitted UQs to use on cool days, and it would be nice if they didn’t need any other fabric layers.

It may work ok for warmer temperatures. We have not tested this ourselves so we can’t say for sure.
