Macramé wall hanger “Isabella”
Tie a Beautiful Wall Hanging
Now you have the chance to bring your creativity to life and create a personal artwork that will brighten up your home. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, these simple and clear steps in the video will guide you through creating a beautiful wall hanging. So get started, unleash your creativity, and let your hands do the talking! You will need Single Twisted 4 mm yarn, one wooden dowel approx 75cm long (driftwood would work well too, but for beginners, I
recommend a straight dowel), measuring tape, scissors, brush/comb and clothes rail.
Yarn Consumption: 1 roll of Single Twisted 4 mm yarn

Here's how to do it
In the video, I am working on a table to make it easier for you to see the steps but I recommend that you hang your macrame on a clothes rail or the back of a door to make it easier on your back and shoulders. /Isabella

Cut
Part A6 x 2 meters string
Part B4 x 2 meters string
Part C10 x 4.5 meters string10 x 0.4 meters string (Tassel)
Part D2 x 2.5 meters strings
Part E (cut after you have finished parts A-D and refer to video or written instructions)Long fringe approx. 76 x 1.2 meters of stringsShort fringe approx. 32 x 0.8 meters of string
Safety- Make sure you vacuum clean after every macrame session especially if you have children, or pets at home or suffer from asthma.
PART A
1. Tie two strings in the middle of the dowel using the Lark’s Head Knot, next, add two on the left and two on the right, from the middle ones, 5cm apart.
2. Tie one Square Knot under the Lark’s Head Knots
3. Measure 5cm below the Square Knots and tie two Alternating Square Knots.
4. Measure 5cm and tie one Square Knot with the middle four strings
PART B
1. Tie two strings on the left and right of PART 1, using the Lark’s Head Knot, 5cm apart.
2. Tie a Square Knot underneath
3. Measure 5cm below the Square Knots and tie one Alternating Square Knot to join PART A and B. Repeat on the other side.
4. Measure 5cm below the Square Knots and tie one Alternating Square Knot. Repeat on the other side. Make sure all the Square Knots are aligned.
5. Measure 5cm and tie two more alternating Square Knots underneath using the middle 8 strings
6. Finally, measure 5cm and tie one Square Knot with the middle four strings
PART C
1. Tie five strings on the left and right side of the macrame, using the Lark’s Head Knot
2. Starting from the band on the left, take string #5, use it as a guide and tie a diagonal line of Double Half Hitch Knots going from the centre to the left.
3. Take string #6, use it as a guide and tie a diagonal line of Double Half half-hitch knots going from the centre to the right.
4. Weave the strings #2 to #9: alternating over, under, over, under
5. To close the diamond shape. Tie a diagonal line of Double Half half-hitch knots going from the left to the centre
6. Tie a diagonal line of Double Half half-hitch knots from the right to the centre. Close the diamond by making a Double Half Hitch Knot with the guides.
7. Repeat STEPS 2-6 on the opposite side.
NOTE- always alternate making diamond shapes from one band to the other to keep them symmetrical as much as possible
8. Next, go back to the band on the left and tie two diagonal lines of Double Half half-hitch knots
9. Tie a Square Knot with the middle four strings, tie two alternating Square Knots underneath and a Square Knot with the middle four strings.
10. Close the diamond with two diagonal lines of Double Half half-hitch knots
11. Repeat STEPS 8-10 on the opposite side.
12. Continue making diamonds on both bands, alternating the design inside, until the bands are long enough to join in the middle, under the Square knot. I made 6 diamonds on each band. However, everyone’s tension knotting is different and you might need more or fewer diamonds.
13. Next on the left band, tie a full diagonal line of Double Half half-hitch knots from left to right, under the diamond.
14. Repeat on the other side.
15. Using the two guides, join the two sides with a double half-hitch knot. I recommend you
do this step on a flat surface to make it easier to join the bands.
16. Continue the diagonal lines to tie the top of a large diamond
17. Weave the strings inside the diamond, grouping them in sets of 3.
18. Close the diamond with two diagonal lines of Double Half half-hitch knots
19. Put aside the first and last 3 strings, and continue the diagonal lines, to make the top of a smaller diamond
20. Brush the 10 x 0.4 meters strings to make the tassel
21. Take the tassel and place it on top of the middle 6 strings.
22. Fold the tassel ends behind the strings and through the middle
23. Lift the tassel and tie a square knot underneath with the 6 strings
24. Close the diamond with two diagonal lines of Double Half half-hitch knots
PART D
1. Tie one string on the left and one on the right about 7-8 cm apart from the macrame, the
strand on the outside is around 60 cm long
2. Take the long strand and tie it under the third diamond with a Verticle Lark’s Head Knot
3. Next, tie the long strand under the last diamond with a Verticle Lark’s Head Knot
4. Repeat on the opposite side
PART E
1. Take the 1.2 meters strings and add them to the strings from PART D, using the Lark’s Head Knot. I used 19, you might need more or less. Double-check that you are happy with the length, before cutting more strings for the remaining of the wall hanging.
2. Tie more 1.2 meters strings
3. Finally, tie a few more strings between the Verticle Lark’s Head Knot and the large diamond
4. Repeat STEPS 1-3 on the other side
5. Take the 0.8 meters of strings and add them to PART B, on the string between the Square Knots
6. Repeat on the other side.
7. Trim the fringe to the desired length- In the video I share three different methods to do this step.
8. Brush and trim the tassel.
9. Use the two short string strands from Part D, tie a simple knot and now you are ready to hang up your Macramé!
We hope you are happy with your result :)
