Macrame beginner - any tips and tricks?
Comments
-
Reporting back - haven't managed to do any macrame apart from a bracelet but I taught myself to crochet instead and so far I have made three scarves, a mini Christmas wreath, snowflakes and this bag which is crocheted with string (unfortunately the second reel was a horrible grey colour). Managed to line it by hand and now thinking I need to get a sewing machine!

That looks great @Chloe_G! Well done on teaching yourself to crochet too

That bag is amazing! Especially as you have only just learned to crochet, well done!
Crochet is the challenge that still eludes me lol, I have tried many many times but I just cannot seem to pick it up....I can knit up a storm but cannot crochet at all, so my eyes are slightly green looking at your beautiful bag 1 -
I used to knit a lot when I was younger but when I went back to it a few years ago, I found it really hurt my arms (arthritis). I have really persevered with the crochet and watched loads of YouTube very slowly! It is so different from knitting but it's definitely more versatile!0
