TIPS:
* It is helpful to anchor knotting projects. A clipboard works well for this purpose. Fold both pieces of cord in half and clamp under the clip. Or use a piece of foam core or Styrofoam™ and straight pins to secure the cord.
* The knotted pattern is created using alternating half-hitch knots. Max Lunger’s book, Hemp Masters: Ancient Hippie Secrets for Knotting Hip Hemp Jewelry (#62-250) offers more information on macramé techniques.
