Introduction
CORDS: Macramé
| The words derives from the Turkish (or Persian or Arabic) for fringe. Macramé is knots; mostly half hitches and square knots. It was very popular in the sixties, and is back around. This time, chokers knotted from hemp twine and decorated with beads are a very big favorite. Hemp and linen are especially good for knotting; they are not too slippery to hold knots, or too skinny to manipulate. There are many other cords that will work well; see the jute in the basketry section, the waxed cotton and the white cotton blend cords in this section. The T-pins below, and the netting shuttles, listed with the hammock and netting materials, are very handy. |  |
T-PINS
Nickel-plated steel, 1-3/4" long T-shaped pins, used to hold your
beading and knotting work in place as you go.
