originated in the 13th century with Arab weavers, and has made a bigger comeback in 2015 than Hilary Duff \u003Ci\u003E(shoutout to everyone who saw my Hilary Duff appreciation tweet the other day). \u003C\/i\u003EIt is a form of textile-making that requires a sequence of knotting techniques. It's likey that you've seen some macrame on Pinterest (feel free to browse my macrame board above) and so I'm here, as always, to break this down for you and explain everything you need to know about macrame.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: inherit;\"\u003EDisclaimer: 'Macrame' should be spelled 'm\u003Cspan style=\"background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 19.8400001525879px;\"\u003Eacramé', but shall be spelled 'macrame' for the entirity of this post as I don't know the keyboard shortcut for an accented 'e'. \u003Ci\u003E#StayInSchoolKids\u003C\/i\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ci\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Ci\u003EWhat materials do I need to do macrame?\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIf you want to make a colourful creation, you can get metres and metres of macrame string, in an abundance of colours, for a very cheap price \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.ebay.co.uk\/itm\/27M-1mm-Braided-Nylon-Thread-Macrame-Cord-String-Beading-Craft-Jewellery-DIY-\/380975852542?var=\u0026amp;hash=item58b3ee2bfe\" target=\"_blank\"\u003Eon Ebay\u003C\/a\u003E. But if you have some twine or even thin rope hanging around the house, that works perfectly fine and gives a traditional look. As for the anchor, shall we say, of your macrame, doweling is great, (or copper piping for an on-trend look, as shown in the image above). But, again, if you just want to give it a quick go and don't have all the equipment, a pencil will do just fine.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ci\u003EWays to display your macrame creations\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETraditional wall hangings are a great starting point as you can stick with a small manageable one, or go big with a huge one. Curtains or window dressings seem like the next logical step in your macrame journey as these are essentially humongous wall hangings but with a curtain pole as your, what I previously coined, 'anchor'. But plant hangers can be pretty simple and look really fresh - there's a great tutorial \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/nouvelledaily.com\/blog\/posts\/2014\/september\/diy-macrame-hanging-cacti-planters\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003Ehere\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ci\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Ci\u003ETypes of knot\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMacrame is pretty simple and once you get a few knots in your brain, you're pretty much good to go and you can get creative and do your own thing.
