Creating new shapes with rope takes a lot of trial and error, and it’s what led macramé artist Mikaela Szumigraj to develop the “leaves on vine” technique she’s become known for. Through her studio, String Theories Fiber Design, she creates everything from macramé kits to wall hangings and soft sculptures.

In this online course, Mikaela teaches you how to create organic botanical shapes using macramé knots. Learn to make a unique wall hanging with woven leaves and fruits, by transforming simple pieces of string into three-dimensional works of art.
