“The instructions are soooo good. In fact it spoiled me a bit because now other patterns seem so terse. This is not just a pattern really, it’s more like an entire workshop.” – /u/quail-a-lot

Tyvek Groundsheet
One of the cheapest and easiest ways to make an ultralight groundsheet. It doesn’t fray, so you can simply cut it to your desired shape and size.
DIY Alcohol Stove
The classic 'Super Cat' stove. Create an ultralight stove from a simple cat food tin. It burns hot, blooms fast, and is a fun and iconic MYOG project.
Ultralight Towel
Those colourful cellulose sponge sheets from the cleaning aisle make surprisingly good, incredibly absorbent ultralight towels. Just wash them thoroughly first!
Waterproof Shoe Liners
A ultralight hack: bread bags. Keep your dry camp socks cozy when you need to pop out of the tent. It looks silly, but it works perfectly.
No-Sew Cinch Straps
Make strong, adjustable straps without a sewing machine using just webbing and a triglide buckle. Perfect for on-the-fly gear modifications and repairs.
