I'd love to have your feedback on this tutorial. Is there anything that I overlooked in my explanation? I want to make this as seamless as possible for you to make. If you have a macrame project you'd like me to make a tutorial of, let me know in these comments! ☺

Thanks for the tutorial. It's really very good.
Have you ever made this in a larger size? I'm thinking about 12 inches across the bottom.
How long would you cut the cords?

@@pattyclampitt2884 Thank you for the feedback. I haven’t tried to make it bigger yet. I would be tempted to use a much thicker cord, like 8mm. You’d have to adjust the cord lengths… probably double them. I think that would pretty much double the size. I hope that helps.

I suggest not making this in a room with 3 cats 😂 super easy to follow though and I'm looking forward to my finished product!! 😁

[@interwovenstudio]

Hola! estoy por terminar mi cesta, espero que me quede tan linda como la tuya. Consulta: Cómo puedo hacer para calcular el hilo que voy a necesitar si quiero hacerla de un diámetro mayor? Gracias!

[@adrianam.9634]

Olá muito bonito!
Pode fazer com um cordão mais forte?

[@interwovenstudio]

¡Sí tu puedes!

[@mariannamorozova2133]

Hello, would you be able to tell me how long it took you to make this basket from start to finish? Thank you!

[@interwovenstudio]

I think it took about 2 ½ to 3 hours to make.
