Considering the size of this project, we’ve incorporated quite a few different knots, so this is also a great way to learn and get comfortable with new types of knots.Good news for crafters: you don’t need to splurge on home décor from the high street to enjoy the revival of this humble knotted craft. The explosion of DIY macramé kits has made the craft more accessible than ever and there are so many projects to choose from that you don’t need to settle for a classic plant holder, though it’s a great place to start! The best part is, it doesn’t take too much time to make since it’s fairly small and it will make the perfect Boho-style accessory for any Christmas tree. Make alternating square knots below the first one, using the far left and far right sets of four cords. It comes with all the necessary materials and a wall hanging pattern teaching you the six basic macramé knots.

Step 4: Take the second cord from the right and make a Vertical Lark's Head knot onto the far-right cord. Repeat the same on the left-side. Step 3: Make your second branch by tying the same knot, but this time putting the bottom loop to the right and top loop to the left. Step 1: Cut 20 pieces of cord eight inches in length, and set aside. Cut one piece of cord about 20 inches in length. Fold the long piece in half and tie a knot below the fold, leaving a two inch loop at the top. String the cord ends through the bead, and pull the bead up to the knot. This will be the center piece of your tree. In this project, you’ll find the lark’s head knot, vertical lark’s head knot, double half-hitch knot, berry knot (which is made up of a few square knots), reverse lark’s head plus half hitch, and the gathering knot. If you are new to macramé, we recommend learning with a macramé starter kit, like our Kami Wall Hanging kit And there you have it! This gorgeous ornament is bound to bring festive cheer to your home. I like the texture the berry knots brought to this design.

Step 6 (optional): Use a comb or brush to fray the branch pieces (this part can take a little time, but just keep combing). Trim the tree shape, if needed. Step 8: Attach a strand of 120 cm cord onto the far-right cord with a Reverse Lark's Head Plus Half hitch (RLHPHH). Step 4: Cut a piece of twine to about ten inches. Fold the piece in half and tie a knot half an inch from the top. Attach the twine to the ring with another larks head knot. Hi Macramé lovers and knotters! Christmas is upon us and what better way to celebrate this special occasion than a fun, beginner friendly craft?

Step 11: Attach a strand of 80 cm cord onto each of the far-right and far-left cords with an RLHPHH.You can find all instructions, measurements, and tips in the video description, which you can read when opening the tutorial on YouTube. Step 14: Take the far-left cord as an anchor cord for eight DHH knots to the right. After each DHH knot, include the working cord with the anchor cord group for the next DHH.

Step 1: Cut 16 pieces of cord eight inches in length. Take one piece of cord and create a larks head knot around the wood ring by folding the piece in half, putting the loop through the center of the ring, and pulling the ends of the cord through the loop. Step 6:Take the third cord from the right as an anchor cord for a Double Half Hitch (DHH) knot to the right. I used the Natural & Gold Shimmer single strand cotton cord from our Rainbow line for this tutorial. When working with cord spun with metallics, the metallics do come apart quite easily. It can even be kid-friendly too! If you are looking for a thoughtful Christmas gift handmade with love, then this Christmas tree ornament may be right for you.Step 5:With the middle four cords, make a Berry knot with two consecutive Square knots. With the first square knot, leave about 1cm space the square knot – this is for weaving the middle two anchor cords through.
