The Simple Beauty of Cotton Cord & Knots

Macramé requires virtually no expensive equipment: just a bundle of 3mm or 4mm twisted cotton cord, your hands, and a wooden dowel or branch from your garden.

By mastering just three fundamental knots (the Lark's Head, Square Knot, and Half-Hitch), you can craft sturdy hanging planters that cradle trailing pothos vines, or intricate geometric wall tapestries.
