The New Macrame

If you are a certain age there's a part of you that cringes when you hear the word "macrame." But times change (thankfully) and macrame has matured as well. Now we have micro-macrame -- with beads no less -- and it's pretty cool. Not only that, there are some good tutorials on the internet for those who want to learn basic patterns and knotting techniques.

Look familiar?

Cruising around Pinterest I came across macrameschool.com, which features tutorials for basic knotting patterns as well as specific projects. Keep scrolling for a little pictorial of some of what they offer.  Click on any of the links or images to go to their site.  Happy knotting!
