    1. Supplies (scissors, cord, setup)
    2. Learn basic macrame knots (lark's head knot, square knot, double half hitch knot)
    3. Un-knotting is inevitable
    4. Measure twice, cut once
    5. Save scrap cords
    Bonus: have positive mindset

    Thank u I have just started macrame and cut my first lot of cord wrong so haven’t bothered to go back to it. You have given me incentive to start again, thank u

    I suggest when filming, to lower the macrame wall art so that you can showcase your work within the frame. You only have 3-5 seconds to grab a new user, so show off your best stuff.

    Hello Nicole, was looking for such tips, thank you. One more problem I m facing is brushing the hangings. The cotton thread of 3 mm I bought as macrame takes too much time to unturn and after even after combing they stay twisted. I sprayed water, ironed them. Guide me on this issue. Also the bulk of combed threads is not as beautiful as yours.

    Measure rope to design just 1 full length, and then you'll know how to adjust from their before cutting all the other rope for your project.

    I haven’t had the opportunity to watch your other videos yet, but I can say that on this video, the audio is not very clear. I would really like to know these tips, because I’m just starting to learn macrame, but unfortunately, I can’t hear or understand you in your video as well as other people’s video channels I have watched. I’ll move onto some of your other videos in the hope that you have started to use a Lavalier microphone or fixed the audio issues somehow. Fingers crossed! Thanks for sharing your expertise.

    Can anyone tell me why my cords always come out way shorter then what the design does? What could I be doing wrong?

    • @Bochiknot
      @Bochiknot  3 роки тому

      It may be due to the different brand of cord you are using vs. the one in the design. Every brand varies slightly in each of its 3mm, 4mm and 5mm etc . sized cords.

    Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, but please cut the background music as it's highly annoying and disturbing. Especially at the beginning it was too loud, i thought gosh i can't stand 5min with her speaking an this background music. Your voice is very pleasant and soothing, you don't need any background noise.
