- Are you tired of wasting macrame cord, or worse, running out mid project? 🫣
Don't worry, in this tutorial, I'll show you how to ACCURATELY estimate the length of your macrame cords for all of your projects! 🙌
It doesn't matter if you're making a wall hanging, a plant hanger, or any other type of macrame patterns, if you're designing your own pattern you're going to have to estimate the macrame cord lengths before you get started. 📏
I'm sure you've heard that you can just multiply by 8 for the knotted portion of your wall hanging, and that method does work to an extent.
But if you want to get more specific and accurate, the method I show you in this video will get you there!

I need to learn cord lengths
Very nice videos. I like the way you adequately explain things and you show what you’re doing as well slowly. Very appreciated. I’m a hands on learner so the fact you explain it verbally and also show it help a lot. Thank you. Am I overlooking the links you mentioned??
I’m so glad to hear that! All the links are down in the video description 😊
I’ve got to learn a double half-hitch knot. I don’t know how.
Here's a tutorial that should help 😊 ua-cam.com/video/4BAalZzLGvE/v-deo.htmlsi=jdBVGtWE53kIicOE
How do you have your holder. To hold your dowel while you work?
I have it hanging off a clothing rack with 2 "S" hooks.
Does doing rows of alternating square knots work the same as doing a straight row?
Doing alternating rows uses up the cord more evenly, since you alternate the filler cords and working cords for each row. You can do a test swatch of like 4 rows alternating square knots, mark the cords under the knots, untie them and measure the longest cord and divide it by 4. That will get a more accurate estimate for alt. square knots. 😊
