Macramé carpet “Naomi”

Tie a beautiful rug using the technique of macrame

This instruction will suit everyone even you who are new to macramé and we go through each step in the video. In this instruction we make the size to about 40 cm x 80 cm (as in the picture) in EKO Braided Rope 5 mm, but you can also cut double lengths of the yarn to get the mat twice as large. In order to tie the carpet, you need to hang it on the wall and therefore need a wooden stick about 70 cm wide. A flower stick that you buy at the store works great.

Yarn consumption: 1000 g if you want the same size as in the video


This is what you need:
