I am 11 and I started watching macramé videos and making bracelets when I was nine and told everyone at school that I made these and some believe and some don’t so I wanted to make more projects and this is a big project which I am tempted to make!! My aunt really supports me to make these I now tomorrow is her birthday so I’m gonna make it as a birthday gift ❤❤❤
Hi Mariamajid. You should video yourself making a small project and show it to the kids at school, that way they won't dis-believe you anymore :)
@@robinr5705 yup pretty sure and looking forward to doing that
I'm new to macrame and I love this. So simple and you've explained it clearly... Thank you!
Glad you liked the way I explained it 🙂
I am a crocheter and this form of art came across one of the videos that I was watching one day and said to myself Wow, this looks interesting.
It seemed rather complicated with all of the twists and turns but after seeing this video I would like to give it a shot. I am a little bit nervous but the video gave me some ease.
Wish me luck.😊.

My tip for cutting the ends evenly. Hang the project on the wall. Use masking tape to determine the angles you want. Cut the ropes and then remove tape. Can be used for the bottom of plant hangers too.
That's an awesome tip! Thank you for sharing it, I will definitely try this in the future!
Op 🤢
Thanks so much for your awesome tip. I have lengths cut and am about to start my first ever macrame project.
Thank you so much for this really helpful tutorial 💜 It is definitely the best one I have come across in Macrame. I have subscribed and look forward to making other projects with you. 💜
Great teacher, but how much to buy and how long to cut each strand
That was awesome! Thanks so much for your beautiful tutorial. I can’t wait to try this. I used to macrame years and years ago so this is exciting to begin again. ❤️☀️
Wonderful! Have you gotten around to try this yet?
Anna, you are so easy to follow and your explanations are so helpful. Thank you for great videos!
My first attempt at this turned out gorgeous thanks to your clear instructions and actually showing how to make the two knots. Thank you once again for posting this video. ❤
Beautiful! Your tutorial was excellent! As a young child…. 8-10 I had made many plant hangers, wreaths, and even a large owl…. I am excited to try this craft again…. Thank you for your inspiration.
You are so welcome! Have fun with your newly re-discovered hobby 😊
Ive only been doing this for about a year and a half ive struggled terribly with the double hitch knot but when you showed in the video and explained how to do it i think i can do it now thanks for explaining thingns so throughly in your videos
I might give this a try. I have a vague memory of making a macramé plant hanger in art class in junior high, about four decades ago. I remember enjoying it, but I haven't attempted any form of macramé projects since.
Have you gotten around to making this in the end? I know you said you ordered the supplies...
Am new to Macrame and have just found your channel which is so helpful! Thank you. I am so keen to make some of your more complex wall hangings but will start with this, it looks great as a first piece. Really enjoying your top tips; great tutorials.
This is perfect for beginners so have fun making it 😉
I love the straight forward, simple instructions you give!
Glad you like them 🙂
The speed that you explained all the knot thing was spot-on!
You made the double half hitch knot so easy for me! I have been trying to get this down for a while now! I'm definitely going to try it your way! ❤
That fringe is so fluffy! 😍 Love it!
I know right 😃
I will order stuff I need straight away and try to make this as my first piece! Thank you for a lovely and simple video 😍
Just watched this video I love this project and hope to start today with mine. You explained everything so well I feel confident I can begin now...I've watched so many, and when there over I'm more confused then when I started..
Just completed mine. Excellent instructions and video! Thank you!
Awesome! Glad you could follow along
Thank you! I just made this, on a smaller scale. It was great practice.
That’s great!
You are so easy to listen to… you’re a natural “teacher”
Oh I am so happy to hear that 😊
Thank you Anna for this informative video, however, I can't find the actual cord lengths to be cut.i know there are 14 cords but don't know the lengths.
At last a realy clear set of instructions for beginners Iloved it
Beautiful. !! Vividly explained .
Thank you! Made my first piece!! Your a good teacher!

That’s great to hear! 😊
@@annabaginova01 n yes the fringe took the most time..😁.. its beautiful..
Thank you again♡
Loved it 😍😍😍 gonna try this soon .
Hey Anna, just wanted to thank you for your brilliant easy to follow tutorial. I bought a macrame beginners kit.... beginners, yeah right! Might as well have been written in hyroglyphics! I've thrown the instructions away and am using my kit to make your design, so thank you so much from a true beginner! 💖 Ps I used my clothes maiden to hang my dowel from, never thought of a coat hanger! 🤭
Hi Beverly, oh I am sorry to hear you didn't have a good experience with written instructions but I am glad you can reuse the supplies for this project! And that's such a good idea with the clothes maiden, if you don't mind I will be suggesting this to people who don't want to invest in a clothing rack 😁
@@annabaginova01 I don't mind one bit and thank you for your response I really appreciate it. 💖
Beautiful.!
Thanks 😊
Hi Ann it's first time lsee you and I found your video is so helpful and I'm so excited to try it.thanks alot❤❤
Great teacher!!!!!!
I did it 7 string insted of 14 and it turned out really cute
But this video really helped me
I like your work congrats !
Thanks a lot!
I used to macrame in the 60/70 's forgot how much fun it is!!
Well now is the time to rediscover it 😉
Thank i am looking forward to making my 1st macrame
Very awesome tutorial❤
Thanks so much 😊
Amazing work
Thanks again!
Very beautifully explained
Glad you think so
I just finished my first Macrame project. I'm hooked. Thank you for a great project and clear instructions!
That's awesome! I am glad to hear there is one more fan of macrame out there 😊
I used this video to make my first wall hanging & it was super helpful, thank u! Wish I could upload a pic here to show u/the followers….I gave mine a western flair with a fiber feather, some leather string, & some twist cords w/beads on the sides…..so much fun!
Oh & I just joined your patreon so hoping to interact some there too once I figure out discord???….lol
Oh wow, that sounds like you really had some fun with it! And thank you so much for the support on Patreon, I really appreciate that 🙂 You should definitely post the picture on the discord channel once you connect there 😉
oh thank I do crochat but I love to try this
Hi Anna,
Thank you so much for your easy to follow tutorial, the only thing is I missed the size of cords I would need to make this beautiful wall hanging.
* it's v. nice video for beginners* .. *Thankyou.*
Welcome 😊
Thank you ❤
Beautiful
Thank you
Thank you so much
It is so nice to find a teaching session for Macrame on the U Tuube! Thank you. I was thinking of the person who said the cords were too expensive. I had an idea, why couldn't a person practice with any household string they happen to have. Even yarn, Is this feasible?
You can definitely practice with all kinds of things although I wouldn't recommend yarn since that tends to be very thin usually and that makes it harder to do the knots, especially for a beginner. You could take shoe laces for example or a clothes line or any kind of rope material.
@@annabaginova01 Thank you.
Hi Anna, if I may offer a suggestion for cutting the fringe; I am a hairdresser and I know it’s not exactly the same, 😉 but I feel like if you cut the fringe evenly across the bottom and then combed it out; then cut it at an angle beginning from the outside coming down to the center it’s going to come out more even. I don’t mean to criticize you. We used to do haircuts like this. They are called “V cuts” . You may find it a little easier to navigate as well. I hope you have a wonderful day! Thanks for so much great tutorials and information. I want to try this project soon. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the tip! I always appreciate advice from people who have more experience 😉 The difficult part about this kind of long fringe is that it keeps twisting on itself…
@@annabaginova01 hmmm, maybe misting with a bit of water would help for the twisting?
@@tbonemalone3407 That would probably help. I was thinking the same thing. I've never tried spinning, but I've watched a few spinning videos. After yarn is spun and/or piled, it's soaked in water to set the twist so that it doesn't keep trying to twist on itself. A light ironing with a little steam might help unset the twist also.
@@annabaginova01Did you make a tutorial about how to stop it from spinning around itself? I’m making tassels for a wall hanging right now, and I just can’t stop them from spinning, and it took me 1 hour to make 3 of them😮 and I have to make 60! I’m using 3 mm single twist cord, and I want my tassels to hang down more straight. Can you or someone please give me a good advice….🙏🏼
From one Anna to another....Loved doing this one! First time. Used 3mm, I think. New to Macrame. Can you add other knots to it, after your finished product, without brushing it first. I have a looooot leftover cord!
Well hi Anna 🙂 I know I am answering this kinda late so you may not need this information anymore but you definitely can add other knots. You could for example do one or more rows of square knots in that arrow shape and then again the double half hitch knots 😉
I always keep left over cord to make small projects like feathers or small Banting hearts.
Right, I have sooo many left over cords that I'm always trying to find ways to incorporate them into other pieces
Wonderful video with great instructions for this beginner. Thank you. Question: Are there any good knots I can add onto mine once this is finished? Since I didn't have 9mm cord but I did have 5mm, I converted your metric measurements and made your project using 9 foot, 8,7 and 6 foot cords, all the same proportions as your project except my cord was much smaller. So I ended up with A LOT of extra cord at the end- too much to waste. I'm wondering if you have suggestions on what I can add on to this project because I probably have 80% of the cord left hanging- too much to cut and comb. What do you recommend? I don't want to get half way through a pattern and run out of cord.
What you could do is repeat the pattern - adding a few rows of square knots right underneath the double half hitches and then do those again and continue like this until you are happy with the length 😉
AWSOME I LOVE THIS AND THE HACKS WILL BE VERY HELPFUL. THANKYOU. AND YOUR DAD
Really happy to hear that 😊
Thx this will be my very first project but I only have 5mm cord. Can you tell me if I should use shorter lengths
Hi Anna! I love your tutorials, they are super easy to follow ❤️ I only have a 3mm rope, will it be any good for this project? Should I do more than 14 cords so it's bigger? Thank you in advance ❤️
Hi Ewelina, thank you 😊 You can do this with 3mm rope as well but if you do the same amount of cords it will be much smaller. So if you want the same final size you will need to add more cords.
Thank you
Welcome!
Hi Uzliky, I am a total beginner to macrame. I have been watching your macrame videos and wanna really get started with a project. Please can you advice if I need to first practice the basic knots and then get started with this project? Also single twist and single ply are the same ?
A big thank you for such helpful videos .
Hi Azmina, I would say it's completely up to you if you want to practice the knots first before doing a project. I started doing my first project right away but it might be helpful to just test some of the knots first. You can easily do that with some shoe laces for example before buying real cord for the project. And yes, single twist and single ply (or also single strand) are the same thing 😉
Buen video ❤
thanks 🙂
The quality of this macrame cords is really nice.. plz share some links to buy online.. usually what I saw in the local market its not so good
I would love to see something with teals blues and greens ocean colors… Do you have any videos that I can refer to that you’ve already done that’s the color in my bedroom and I would love to make something small to medium scale for over my bed.
I haven’t really done any pieces with that color palette yet but I have some projects in mind where I could go in that direction 😌
I'm so glad I bought the clothes rack.
Good, I am glad you are happy with your purchase
Great video . Can you suggest a project I could made with 3mmx100m of cord . Thanks
I know I am answering this kinda late so you may not need this information anymore but you could do a variation on this one I made czcams.com/video/eTX7SQONbnA/video.html. You will just need to make fewer knots at the top so that you have enough cord.
10:04 this was the most basic and first thing my mother told me to do 😅❤
Hello Anna, i am new to macrame and i love the way u have explained it. As i am new to this i have a quick question. In the description you have mentioned 30,6m 9mm which has confused me, could u please explain the 30,6m ?
She meant that in total, you need 30.6m length of 9mm single ply rope (if you add up the lengths of all 14 ropes: 2x270cm, 4x240cm, 4x210cm etc.. you will get exactly 30.6m) . Hope this helps!
Great video, with easy explanations! However, your square knot is not quite like a reef knot, or does macramé have a different definition?
I am not familiar with a reef knot but according to Wikipedia the reef knot and square knot should be the same and when I look at the picture it does look like the square knot from macrame...
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 beautiful ( super )
Thank you! Cheers!
I've never done macrame so I have some questions is a package of the cord called a skein ? How much cord is in a package, did this take a whole package ? W hat are some cheaper but still decent brands to buy ? I really enjoyed your video and can't wait to try it !
I'm really happy to hear you want to give it a go and I wish I had some good answers for you but for most of your questions it depends. As for the first one I have never heard or seen the word "skein" but that may be just because the language/location difference (I live in the Czech Republic). How much cord is in a package can vary again depending on the location (metric system vs. imperial) and also on the brand (some brands even use weight instead of length to measure this which I find not very useful) but as far as I've seen every brand has this information clearly visible on their website or the product itself. For this project I needed about 30 m of the cord which was exactly how much was in the package. And for your last question I only work with the brand Bobbiny which is on the more expensive side of the spectrum but it has an amazing selection and their environmental standards are also quite high so for me it's worth it.
Love your work.
I was wondering why couldn’t we use yarn instead of cord?
You can do macrame with almost any material including yarn but I wouldn't recommend that one as yarn is usually very thin and that makes it more difficult to make the knots.
I love your channel and makes me want to play more with macrame, however I struggle with the horizontal & vertical hitch knots, keeping the tension and of course going a straight line, it is making me extremely hesitant in doing some hangings..
Well there is no magic trick for that unfortunately, just practice practice practice 😉
@@annabaginova01 Sadly I stumbled on a video today on youtube about how to do it with the traveling cord and the main cords and using proper hand control etc...... I sighed loudly at my lack of technique so far (I am still in baby stages of learning and only done a few peices so far, but I can do vertical IF i have a steady row of knots above it to press up against. I realised this was going to be the response sadly.........LOL I am trying to plan my next project something different with minimal vertical and horizontal hitch knots, although they are highly popular on tutorials.....LOL But thank you thou, will focus on that and my hunt for long peices of driftwood.........LOL
Anna, can I make it wider with smaller cord by adding more cord in the middle? Say 20 cords rather than the 14? Thank you 😊
I know I am answering this kinda late so you may not need this information anymore but yes, that would work 🙂 You will then just need to cut all your cords a bit longer since all the sections will be a bit longer (if you want to keep all the proportions).
Good morning I made this wall hanging, and my daughter in law loved it, but wants me to make a larger size. Im a beginner and wanted to know how to calculate this wall hanging to be wider and longer? Thank you.
How did you measure the cords? I just bought some rope that’s 4mm 109 yards

thank you
