Has the macramé bug already infected you? Creating fantastic pieces of art has never been easier with the right material. Macramé cord is the umbrella term for many different types of fibers used for macramé projects. The various types of rope, cord, twine, yarn, and thread are available on the market for all those crafters who want to give a chance to this super popular string art.
Macramé is an ancient technique of making a textile using knots. Different kinds of knots are combined to form more complicated patterns. This trendy art form is used to make everything, including plant hangers, purses, jewelry, clothes, keychains, hammocks, bookmarks, different ornaments, curtains, tablecloths, dream catchers, etc. The origins date back to the 13th-century Arab weavers who used the extra thread to make knotted decorative threads on the fabrics. The peak of its popularity was in the Victorian era when many women, regardless of class, used this technique to decorate their homes. The popularity fizzled out after the ‘70s, but the interest was recently sparked in DIYing tutorials on YouTube, Instagram, and Pinterest.
In this post, we will show you different macramé supplies from Hemptique, to help you find the right macramé cord for your next project.
