Macramé looks complicated, but the basic knots are easy to learn. Cut several lengths of cotton cord, fold each one in half, and attach them to a wooden dowel with a simple loop knot. Then tie square knots by working with groups of four cords, creating rows in a pattern you like. Add wooden beads or feathers if you wish, and trim the ends neatly to finish. Once you master the basic knot, you can make larger, more detailed pieces.
Whichever one you choose, pick a colour palette that matches your room, and hang it securely using a nail or strong adhesive hook. Keep it away from candles and diyas, since yarn and fabric catch fire easily. With a little time, you’ll end up with something no shop could sell you, a wall that tells a story.
