Not sure where to put this, thought this might be suitable as my question mainly regards the fabric part of A-frame construction. Id like to know whether anyone has a pattern for a Norse A-frame? after i have finished my chain and arming cap and made some new clothes, im gonna make myself a small 1-11/2 person tent(probably gonna hand sew it(which is why i want a small one)).
Any help would be appreciated

Dont use a very heavy canvas
we now have a wonderfull wake up call every morning when the sun comes up ie we roast, instant sweat box
so use a lighter canvas and get it water profed
