Welcome to the joy of macramé!

There is endless possibility when it comes to what you can produce with the art of macramé, including but certainly not limited to - plant hangers, hammocks, rugs, jewelry, netting, pillow covers, keychains, table runners, swings, bags, etc. I could go on forever. In this class, you will learn how to create a beautiful macramé wall hanging

While this is a guided class, you will learn easy techniques that will allow you to confidently recreate the knots you learned to produce a masterpiece of your very own! 

For this class, you will need macramé cord (or synthetic/acrylic, yarn, etc.), a dowel/driftwood/stick (anything to attach your cord to so it can hang), and scissors! I also highly recommend some good tunes. You can really get into your groove when you're listening to some jams. You will learn more about tools and materials in the class.
