Knot the Day Away with Macrame Jewelry Patterns

If you think macrame is strictly for plant hangers and owl wall hangings from the 1970s, think again! Macrame jewelry patterns are evidence that those knots can be used for much more than just home decor.

You might also remember some macrame jewelry pattern techniques from the hemp jewelry trend back in the 90s. If you knotted a hemp bracelet, then you probably already know the basics of macrame. In fact, if you can tie a knot, you’re well on your way to becoming a macrame expert.

Limber up those fingers and get ready to knot the day away with some of these macrame jewelry patterns from our awesome Craftsy designers.

Macrame Cleopatra Earrings

Earrings are a great place to start if you’re new to macrame. The project is small, so even if you mess up, you can unknot and just try again! This pattern comes with a 20-page tutorial and photographs to help you with all the unfamiliar knots.

Square Knot Macrame Bracelet

I had to look twice to see that this bracelet used square knots to join all those beads. The metallic thread gives the basic knot a whole new look, doesn’t it? Check out the link below, where Craftsy member Jersica has generously provided a link to a FREE tutorial to make the bracelet.

The macrame isn’t obvious at first, but take a closer look and you’ll see how it partners with the beads for a really awesome earring. You could even go a little bolder and use thicker cording and larger beads if you really want the knots to stand out.

    If this is supposed to be a free class, how come the pattern is 4 pounds when I click the link?

    I have quite a lot of experience with macrame & used to teach it but it & sell via home 'parties' etc too. But it was many years ago & since then I;ve retrained as a Laughter, happiness, Mindfulness detc teacher and coach but love adding in craft exercises, which complement the 'lessons' with the sessions to my workshops etc.

    So, is this just made to look like you have classes, but don’t provide them? I’d like to know the date of when these macrame classes will be uploaded, this doesn’t take 4 months.
