a first loop of flexible strap material terminating one end of the hammock strap, wherein the first loop is formed by stitching the one end of the hammock strap back onto itself;
a length of flexible strap material implemented as a single piece of flexible strap material which is separated into a first strap and a second strap at one or more separation points to form one or more eyelets between the first strap and the second strap, wherein between the one or more separation points, the first strap and the second strap are woven back together to form the single piece of flexible strap material; and
wherein
the hammock strap tapers from a first width at the first loop to approximately half of the first width between the first loop and the first of the one or more eyelets along the length of flexible strap material.

a length of the second strap between any two separation points is longer than a length of the first strap between the two separation points.
9. The hammock strap of claim 1 , wherein
a length of the second strap between any two separation points is substantially the same as a length of the first strap between the two separation points.
