The skypup ultralight plans originally called for covering with a
dacron polyester material sold as (IIRC) called 'sheath
lining' used for the interior of suitcoats or maybe dresses. It
was commonly sold unshrunk, and was heat shrinkable.
You can inquire about it on the SkyPup Yahoo _Club:

Evidently it was very similar to the 1.6 oz/yd uncertified
polyester cloth.
Some people attempting to find the material in
recent years have reported that it is also (perhaps the
norm nowadays) pre-shrunk.
