- Macrame is a crafting technique that uses knots to create various
textiles. Since this art form has regained popularity in recent years,
crafters and artists are coming up with innovative ways to take macrame
beyond the basic plant hangers and wall hangings.
- This age-old
practice has gone in and out of popularity for thousands of years.
However, this method will always be around to some degree because of its
practicality. Remarkably, you can make items like table runners and key
chains using just your hands and a couple of inexpensive supplies.
- Macrame
is a technique or method of crafting a textile that uses several knots
to form the basic shape and function of the piece. Each knot can be
created with your hands, and there are no other tools required other
than a mounting ring to keep the item in place while you work.
- For
something to be considered macrame, the project should incorporate at
least one macrame knot. In most cases, macrame projects are pieced
together with several knots. In some cases, you can have macrame
elements joined with other techniques like weaving or knitting.
- There
are so many different macrame projects you can complete. Each project
has dozens of variations to make it your own. Once you get accustomed to
knotting, you’ll be able to create your patterns and come up with some
genuinely unique textiles.
