Hi everyone, first off thank you for watching this tutorial. It has been a labour of love trying to figure out which way would be best to record this one!! I can't tell you how many hours it took me to finally record and explain it in a way I I PRAY will be clearly understood. I hope it does the trick and you guys can all be on your way to creating these beautiful, versatile pods...
This is an intermediate tutorial and I highly suggest you know your square knots and alternating square knots well before attempting this project. If you need help with these knots please see the tutorial below for a slow, step by step process for the basic beginner knots.

I love how you say "kay?" at the end of every sentence. You can say "we're gonna be jumping off a cliff, kay?" and I'll do it with a smile on my face and peace in my heart.
Oh man, I know right? Lol I cringe when I’m editing, I think it’s because I’m a mom and work with kids sooo much so I’m always like, “ok?” Like “you get it?” Lol 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️

I have been doing macrame for about a year now and I have only recently found your channel! I wish I had found it sooner!! Your directions are so clear and I love how you give alternatives!! Also, I love how you explain WHY you are doing something and not just how to do it. Thank you so much!! You are very talented x
Oh my goodness, first off, THANK YOU!!! I really can’t even tell you how much it means to me to be reading this! I almost deleted this channel a week ago so these kinda words of appreciation mean the world to me!!! Thank you so so much! I am so happy you’re enjoying the tutorials!
Calming voice, clear n precise instructions, beautiful outcome ❤️
You’re so kind, thank you so very much! 😊🙏🏼❤️
I just finished this now. It is so beautiful and i am going to do it with different colours. It was so easy with your guide and thank you for sharing.
I’m so happy you like this pod !!! Thanks so much for these kinds words!❤️
This is absolutely beautiful! This pattern reminds me of a bird’s nest that I saw at a zoo once. Thank you for sharing this project 🌟! I agree with several others about your soothing voice, so calming!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great tutorial, your voice would also be perfect for ASMR. Very relaxing
Oh my! Well thank you so much!😊🙏🏼
I LOVE these. I’m pre-beginner right now 😝 meaning I’ve just ordered my first cords. I think I’ll have to do a few plant holders first because this looks advanced, but can’t wait! These are awesome. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
aww thank so much hun! Im excited for you to get started, but be warned, macrame is HIGHLY ADDICTIVE! I do have a few planthanger tutorial, the 10 minute one is very slow and step by step, great for beginners! Have so much fun with your cords!
Outstanding video! I appreciate how you show very clearly what you are doing. I so appreciate hearing about alternate ways to do it, more comfortable, etc. I am so happy you have moved on to intermediate. The biggest thank you is for putting the cord lengths and details in the video notes below!!!
I can’t thank you enough!!!! It means a lot to me to read such positive feed back. I was so worried about this one and not showing/explaining it properly that I made 4, and 4 videos before I decided to edit this one! Thank you again for your kindness.❤️❤️❤️
This is a great tutorial! And your direction through it is well done! I always appreciate when tutorials explain and not just tattering on with nonsense. Well done! Thank you
Thank you so very much hun! I’m glad you find them helpful!❤️❤️❤️
I've just got here through an CZcams rabbit hole and I'm absolutely amazed! I love Macrame and I'm tired of the same patterns and nothing new or well designed, but, oh my! Your channel is fantastic! I love how sleek and clean the ideas are and how you have a new approach to this technique. It's all fresh and airy and well made! My fingers are tingling to reproduce some of your masterpieces. Congratulations again!
Well I have to say.... you won’t believe this but, I was literally just sitting here SO frustrated trying to figure out a new design for a tutorial, and trying to decide weather this is a HUGE waste of time for me, I’ve wanted to quit and erase this channel more times than I can count... I sat here on my floor and prayed for a sign of what I should do... I decided to come here and check on things and I read you absolutely heart warming, encouraging, kind words.... I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to write this here!🙏🏼❤️ Im so happy you enjoy them, many blessings to you Gabriela!
Soulful Notions Please dont even think about quitting this. After checking with you, I have placed order for new colourful macrame yarns. Please take your time and do videos. You have good subscribers and viewers. Keep going dear 😘
@@bhuvaneswaryr4399 that is so sweet of you!!! This means so much to me, I appreciate your kindness sooo very much! many blessings to you dear!

Thank you so very, VERY much!!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you! Mine turned out great, your instructions were soooo much help.
I’m so happy to read this, thank you so much hun!🙏🏼
Was having bad anxiety watched this and felt so much better... so relaxing.. looks lovely too. Will add it to my list of macrame to make ❤❤ thank you x
I’m so happy to hear it! Anxiety is nooo fun, I find so much peace in this craft, I hope that you do too and enjoy making this! Many blessing to you!💫
I made this today. I guess I'm not a beginner anymore 🙂
Very easy to follow.
I 💜 this.
Thsnkyou for sharing

Oh my goodness, I can’t thank you enough for this! I really needed to see this, I appreciate it more than you know!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️ I’m so happy you liked it!
@@soulfulnotions2648 you're so welcome! Honestly, so so helpful & I will be recommending your channel to my fellow crafty friends 🙌🏾🧡
THANK YOU!! 🙏🏼😊🙏🏼
This is maybe the 3rd or 4th tutorial of yours I’ve done- came out beautiful! You are my fav. Macrame channel!
Oh my goodness! THANK YOU!!! I can’t tell you how much that means to me to come here and read such kind and encouraging words! Many blessings to you!❤️🙏🏼
@@soulfulnotions2648 I agree, made a few of your tutorials, all came out so well, thank you.
@@joycebookasong that means a lot to me, thank you!
Tried this. Although i took longer than you, it turned out nice. Added 4 addition rows and decorative beads on hanging cords below the tie off. Found it a bit tricky at points. Started to learn macrame in my early twenties and 50 years later trying to re teach myself and to improve. Your video was very helpful. Thanks.
Yes, well it definitely isn’t a beginner or intro pattern that’s for sure! Sounds like yours turned out nicely though. Glad it worked out.
This is one of the best macrame tutorials I’ve ever seen! You did an excellent job explaining and showing everything. Thank you so much for this!
Thank you so very much Karen, that really means a lot to me! I am so happy you like it and it was helpful:) Thank you again!
Я очень рада, что есть возможность научиться плетению макраме, спасибо за урок.
LOVED THIS! I made a mini one to keep my copper ball in. It came out SO CUTE!
Oh no way:) I’m so happy you liked it!
Thank you! You make it look so easy with the way you explain it...am going to try this!
Thank you so much!
So systematically explained! Thanks for uploading this 😊
My pleasure! I’m happy you like it ❤️🙏🏼😊
This is so relaxing to watch. I will attempt to make it in the future, thank you so much :)
Thank you so much, I’m so happy you enjoyed it!🙏🏼😊
Me too👍👍👍

So I went into Jo-Ann fabric up in CT to ask for macrame cord. The girl looked at me and had no idea what that was lol. I will date myself and say I have been macrame since the late 70s. This project is very nice and will make it
Oh no way!😂😂 That’s too funny! It amazes me that more hobby and craft stores don’t carry it🤷🏻♀️ I’m so happy you enjoyed the tutorial! ❤️
I love the look of this! If I wanted to make it hold a bigger pot, I'm guessing I'd just need to add more of the floating square knots, correct? Thank you so much for sharing and for doing it slowly and clearly. That helps so much!
You’re very welcome! Thank you for these kind words!😊🙏🏼
As far as making it bigger, you got it, just add more of the floating square knots and keep testing it out until you the the width/size you want!
Great tutorial easy to follow I loved making the pod
Thank you, I’m so happy to hear it! ❤️🙏🏼
How clever! This is a great pattern. Thanks for sharing your creativity!
Thank you so much!!!!! It’s my pleasure, I love macrame and I love sharing and teaching! Have a wonderful day and THANK YOU for taking the time to share these kind words!!
Très beau et sympa. Vos explications sont très claires , merci.
You’re welcome!!!❤️🙏🏼😊
Love this! Really clearly explained. Thank you! Can't wait to try this!
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!🙏🏼❤️😊
Mommy these are so great! Good job!
Thank you so so much Belle! 🙏🏼😊
Absolutely fantastic tutorial THANK YOU ♥️
Thank you so very much!🙏🏼
I am afraid whether I can make it
It is unbeleivable❤️
Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing.. a bit tedious but end result is stunning!
I agree! The first time I used this method I told myself it would be the last ! Lol But when I saw what I could make with it... I’ve used many many times since now:)
This was the first youtube suggestion video I saw from your channel and I started following you from then. Since I am beginner, I was not confident to try this as my first project. So I tried macrame heart by seeing your video which cane out pretty good. Today I made this as my second project and feeling great 😇😇😇 Your way of explaining things makes the project quite easy too😊 Thank you again 😘
Thank for taking the time for these kind words, I appreciate it so much!😊😊🙏🏼 Im so happy you enjoy the tutorials and they are working for you! Many blessings xo
Thank you so much for this tutorial, I made this one three days ago 😀
My biggest 'mistake' is that I didn't watch the tutorial, I just started cutting all the cord.
And once I started knotting it turned out to be a bit more difficult than I thought... 😉
But I did go on (while I am the type who drops out quickly when something is difficult) and I really do like it, I hung it on the coat rack for my keys 😀
Oh man, I am the same way!!! Lol Yes, this is an intermediate pattern for sure, but I’m so so happy it worked out for you and that you made 3!!!! Thanks so much for this, I appreciate it:)
@@soulfulnotions2648 I only made one (but that was three, now four, days ago😉) , and that one was hard enough... 😂
I'm still happy with it and now my mom wants me to make one for her too... 😉
Oh I must have misread that!🤦🏻♀️ lol happy you got it figured out!
I love this. So cute. Thanks for sharing.
You’re so welcome! Thank you for these kind words, I really appreciate it!❤️🙏🏼
I have been looking for something exactly like this for a particularly earth conscious friend and seeing how she already loves my homemade rope (plastic bag recycling tutorials rock people!) I’m thinking she’s going to love her succulents hanging around her Florida sunroom more than now since they’re all scattered about sitting on whatever surfaces get the sun which she’s always complaining about having to move around just to do some light cleaning so hanging them where they get great sun, aren’t messing up her tabletops and can be relocated at will (for this I’ll be using those metal shower curtain holders that are a dime a dozen {well maybe a dollar LoL} and very easy to replace should they get a little “used” looking) and she’s happy, I’m busy so I’m happy, and her condo is easier to clean so gets cleaned more often making her father happy... guess all that’s next is to ask... is everybody happy?!? No, then I suggest macrame! LoL! TTFN & thanks again for sharing! ✌🏼🙏🏼🧿
This.is.AMAZING! ☺️☺️
Estoy feliz me gusta esta bello pero me gustaría ver como queda en la parte de atrás!!!! Se ve la cuerda verdad sin tejer? Pues pienso que si tomo pareja todas las cuerdas no queda con caída hacia delante
Such a perfecr tutorial!! Each step is so clearly shown. Thank you sooooo muchh❤️❤️❤️
Maravilloso trabajo !! Un abrazo desde CHILE 🙋♀️
Gracias! 🙏🏼😊🙏🏼
@@soulfulnotions2648 me gustaría saber de cuántos metros son cada cuerda y en total cuantas cuerdas son ? Perdóneme no se Inglés jijiji si usted pudiera responderme se lo agradecería mucho
Belle Horgan I think she is asking how many meters are each cord and how many cords are there.
The beauty in this is that it's seamless. I'd love to be able to do that but I'd probably be all thumbs and lose patience. Thank You for videoing this. I'd only heard of Macrame before. Without exploring exactly what Macrame was. Until today, I thought it was some sort of Origami ( Oh darn how wrong was I on assuming that) ..... You're a true artist. With an artist with a beautiful but practical skill...... ⚛️☮️🎀
Oh my goodness!❤️🙏🏼 Thank you so, so very much for these kind words! I appreciate it more than you know!
hey.. wish i can comment with pictures to show you what i've made.
thank you for the very clear instructions.
Oh no way, I wish you could too! If you’re on Instagram you can show me there, my name is @soulful__notions (2 underscores) I’d love to see your finished work:):) 🙏🏼
Thank you for the clear explanation!!!!
You’re so welcome, and thank you for taking the time to write this, I appreciate it more than you know!
I loved that! Very well explained, and very clear! 👍❤️
Thank you that means a lot!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love this pod so much! Any advice on how to double this in size?!?
Thank you so much❤ well explained video... Crystal clear 😊❤
Thank you so much!🙏🏼❤️😊
I want to make something like this maybe a little larger for my green cheek conures to nest inside of! Thank you for this great tutorial
Oh my goodness that sounds wonderful!!! I’m so happy you enjoyed the tutorial:)

Great tutorial! Thanks so much!
Thank you!! I’m happy you enjoyed it.❤️
How did you learn all of these different styles & techniques &how long have you been doing it? I just discovered your channel today & you have such a soothing, kind voice & your instructions are very thorough for something that's more hands on & a visual learning process vs a verbal instructed process. You do a great job & I can't wait to get started on my 1st project. Thank you!
Oh my goodness, thank you so very much Melissa, that means a lot! I used to make bracelets etc as a child and started making it again about 5 years ago!
Great video! That’s for the thorough step by step tutorial, you’re awesome!!
Oh man, so nice of you ! Thank you so so much, I appreciate it more than you know!❤️🙏🏼
Wow, simply perfect! You did a great job! I want to try this for christmas gift!
Thank you so very much, I appreciate your kindness 🙏🏼❤️
thank you so much you are the best !
You’re so kind!!! Thank you, it’s my pleasure to share with you guys:)
This is so cute! I can’t wait to try it!
Thank you so much! I hope you have fun making it!❤️❤️
@@soulfulnotions2648 ah! I made one and it was so nice!! Fantastic and easy to follow and I loved it so much!!
@@teagan4211 im so happy to hear it!
Making this right now! Thank you 🙌🏻
Awesome!!! Have so much fun with it!!
Superb, very creative. Thank you.
Thank you so very much! ❤️😊🙏🏼
I love your creativity
That is so kind! Thank you so very much!🙏🏼
This is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing the detailed instructions. I plan to use 3mm single ply cord. Can you tell me if I need to use more or less cord cuttings? Thanks in advance!
That’s so kind of you, thank you!🙏🏼 I think using 3mm you could get away with cutting about 4-6 inches less, maybe more but I’d be careful! Also because it is a thinner cord, you may want to add and extra of the floating square knots, just to make to opening a decent size, but that’s something you can experiment, and play around with:)
I used 2 mm cotton cord and it turned out great overall. However, I added extra floating knots and if I do this again would add extra of the beginning set of strings (the attached / semi-floating knots) so the triangle portion of the back side is more proportional in size to the any additional floating knots. I did not modify the length of the strings and it was enough without too much extra waste. Good luck!
WoW. I will try this. Thanks
I’m happy you like it!
Thank you so much .We made it
Oh that is wonderful!
Thank you! Mine came out great!
I'm so happy to hear it!
I love it, thank you 👍❤🙏
❤️🙏🏼😊
Woaa. I don't know it take to many cord , length to this small beauty.
I know right..
So clear , thank you 😊
Happy you like it!! ❤️🙏🏼😊😊
This is very beautiful and explained clearly. Please let me know if I can use 5mm twisted or braided rope ? Will the outcome be as shown or what difference will it make ? Thank you so much!
I think it will be a lot bigger, and a lot thicker and you will have to use more length for each cord
Waooo v v nice n beautiful v good ❤️❤️🌸❤️
This is such a detailed and easy to follow tutorial, thank you so much. I'm wondering if I could possibly make this larger with the knots more spaced out for a looser weave (for a fruit basket) Do you think that would work? Would I need to change the lengths much? Also, is there a way to end the basket without the hanging cords at the bottom? for a more simple look? I'm new to macrame so this is all very new to me. Thanks so much for sharing!
I think you should definitely check out my tutorial for a basket. It has the closed bottom, I’m the video I made the large mustard one BUT I also have allll the course lengths for the black size as well. I think that will be what you’re looking for:)
@@soulfulnotions2648 thank you! Yes, that hanging basket is great, I'll have to try it out!
Hello !!! I want to do this really cute nest but i don't want to have the long cord below... how long should be my cords for just the nest ? Thank you so much !!!!
You can close the bottom like I did on this pattern. ♥️ DIY: MINI MACRAME NESTING PODS | EASY MACRAME POD | MACRAME TUTORIAL

Beautiful!
Thank you so very much Joyce!
Hi! Have made this using 5mm cord and it turned out great! Was wondering if you can make using 3mm? Xxx
You definitely can make it with 3mm!
Hello!! I love this so much. I was wondering if you knew what size pot would fit inside of this? 😊
I believe this one was around 6 inches. If you want it bigger or smaller all you have to do is either add or take away some of those floating knots:)
Soulful Notions thank you! I wanted to make one for my 6 inch pot so this is perfect 😊
Just Love it !!? Thank you!¡
This is beautiful, if I wanted to make this twice the size I can see that I would have to double the amount of float cords but do I double the length of all the cords also. My daughter has asked me to make something like this for her nursery to keep baby toys or such in them (of course she wants 2 lol)
Thank you! I think you should see my tutorial for the basket, it has the same loop and in the video I make the mustard one which is pretty huge and in the description I give the cord measurements etc for the black sized one as well. I hope this helps:)
@@soulfulnotions2648 thank you so much I have just watched the mustard basket one and will try and make that, you make wonderful tutorials and make it all so easy to follow 😃
@@sarahhowieson1255 that really means a lot to me! thank you!!! I made the mustard basket for the same reason, storage for my daughters toys, but knowing how big I wanted the actual basket to be, I decided to create a pattern with no fringe at the bottom instead because I wanted to save cordage because to make something so big uses up SO MUCH!!! I hope it all works out for you, if you need help, just let me know, I do my best to check in at least once a day to answer questions.:)
Thank you so much🤩
You’re so welcome ☺️☺️🙏🏼🙏🏼
Can I do this with 3mm cord or would the measurements be off? Ty for the video!
Yes absolutely! Depending on the type of 3mm, it might just be a bit smaller….♥️♥️
That was so beautiful and really nice to watch. Wonderful. The best out of all tutorials. A little tip: background music would add a bit of more relaxation feel to it. Just a thought. Well done! You are very talented and a very good teacher
Thank you for your kind words and feedback! Although I do agree with you, I tend to get quite a few complaints and very low CPM when I add music!
Hello! Im a macrame beginner and im wondering if this is beginner friendly i rlly looove this basket im wondering if its not to hard but great tutorial keep going! :3
I wouldn’t say this is a great project for beginners unfortunately. I do have lots of slower paced, step by step tutorials specially for beginners though! Once you have the brains down I’d say you are good to try this one. You can always watch the video first and if it looks like something you understand then you should try!
Yes your voice is soothing. Quick question where do you get your chord. Thank for sharing the video.
Thank you so so much! I get all of my cord from Ganxxet! Use code soulfulnotions at check out for a 10% discount if you decide to grab anything there:)
@@soulfulnotions2648 I shall use the code plus I did subscribe to your channel. Much success to you!
Awesome! And thanks for subscribing! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Espectacular.
Thank you sooo much 😊❤️🙏🏼
Hermosoooo!! !
Thank youuu it's beautiful and the tutorial very well done! Would you recommend a specific website where to buy this type of chord? I can't find it where I live (Spain), I only find chords of bad quality :(
Oh thank you so much! I’d try amazon, I get mine from Ganxxet but they are based in Miami?!
so nice....😍really I like it..
from BD.
Thank you so much!😊🙏🏼
@@soulfulnotions2648
masha Allah...I'm still watching your channel.watch the vedio,so beautifully in a very perfect way.I'm fascinated.😆😍💜
Allah bless you.
💜from BD
You’re so kind! Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks a lot,, Wonderful
❤️❤️😊😊
This looks so good! May I ask what size pot it can hold once finished? :)
I believe this one was perfect for 4-5 inches:),
how much should in reduce the lenght of the ropes if i dont want that long tail at the end just 5-10 cm long? amazing work !! 😍🥰🥰
probably 5-10 cm, or just trim it off since its not much at all?
Awesome artwork💕💕😍
So kind of you, thank you so very much:)
lovely!
Thank you so much:)
What do you put in your pods? I immediately thought these would be cool to plant herbs in. What do you do with yours? I have a lot of macrame that was mine when I was young. Funny how I held on to it and now it’s back in style
Oh no way:) that’s awesome! I was going to put longer plants in these but my daughter realllyyyyy wanted them for some of her crystal collection lol so that’s what is in these!
Beautiful❤
Thank you so much 😊
Can you tell me how i can fix the mouth? It seems to be too wide and and it goes forward a bit much..
Loved the tutorial and you your instructions! Thank you in advance.
Maybe you are using a slightly different cord or knots are the same tightness as mine. You can just pull out a square knot or two to bring it in!
Soulful Notions I used a smaller string than the one you did so that may be the reason. I’m definitely making another one because it did turn out cute even though it’s not as exact as your. Thank you!
No worries! Let me know if you get stuck, I try to check in here once or twice a day to help out:)
beautiful!
Thank so much hun, I really appreciate your kind comments!🙏🏼😊❤️
