This was a gift for my hard to please sister. She loves everything about this beautiful ruana. And she raved about the careful and beautiful packaging.
I love setting this up and wrapping myself inside on a cool summer evening. The craftsmanship is amazing! I was quite pleased by the intricacies and attention to detail. It is soft and amazingly versatile to lay in. I am 6' 2" and have no problem laying in it any way I choose. It comes with ropes to tie to trees and hooks to attach the hammock with. I leave the ropes in the trees and remove the hammock when I'm not using it because the wind where I live is strong and I found that it can get tangled if left to the weather. Best to take care of prized possessions like this that were made with love. I can feel the spirit of the artists who made it. It is the most peaceful and comfortable hammock I've ever used. I highly recommend to anyone who thinks they might use something like this.
Wow...what wonderful craftmanship! I purchased the Honey Brown Belle hobo and love it. My only suggestion is to make all the pockets bigger all around. This bag will last for years to come and is definitely worth the investment. Ricardo Hinojosa is a very talented artist~thanks Ricardo!
