2025’s Top Macrame Trends Textures: From Smooth Minimalism to Bold Dimensions
The macrame world is embracing a dynamic range of textures in 2025, blending bold, interactive designs with refined minimalism. From plush, oversized knots to sleek finishes, these emerging styles redefine tactile appeal. Let’s explore how artists like Tatiana Leardi, Silvia Lesko, and Rianne Aart are knotting these trends into their craft.
Luxe Layers: “Textures that encourage interaction are rising,” says Tatiana Leardi from Macrame Spaghetti. Plush, oversized knots and rich, tactile surfaces invite you to touch and explore.
Nature-Inspired Details: Organic patterns and natural shapes are becoming increasingly popular.
“I love incorporating macrame leaves into my wall decorations; nature is such a big inspiration” – Silvia Lesko from NISI.Studio.
Minimal aesthetics: According to Danish contemporary fibre artist Rianne Aart from Teddy and Wool, Minimalist aesthetics are taking precedence over heavily adorned, intricate
styles with lots of fringes, knots, or wool.
2025’s Top Macrame Trends Colours: Grounding Earth Tones and Jewel Brights
This year’s colour palettes balance grounding hues with unexpected pops of vibrancy.
Earthy Classics: Earthy tones like terracotta and sage greens will continue to dominate. I’m excited to mix soft pastels with those earthy colours to create a calming, modern look. Terracotta, sage green, and mushroom tones connect people to nature and sustainability,” explains Nghi Ho from Miss Knottie Macrame.
“Earthy tones will dominate, complemented by soft pastels like lavender, and blush pink” – Nghi Ho from Miss Knottie Macrame.
Bold Accents: “Jewel tones like emerald green and sapphire blue are making a bold comeback,” adds Tatiana Leardi, highlighting the desire for more expressive and vibrant choices.
Miranda Geuze creator of Lomiah Creations believes that natural tones like sand, beige, and creamy off-white are here to stay, complemented by earthy shades such as soft browns like caffè latte and mud. She adds that warm accents like rust and yellow will also feature prominently.
“I love pairing coral or salmon with these natural hues for a striking effect, especially in large wall hangings.” – Miranda Geuze, Lomiah Creations
According to London-based Violetta Onishchenko, founder of Vitta House School of Macrame,
sparkly rhinestone ropes add a touch of luxury to fashion, while earthy tones create cosy, warm vibes.
“For a burst of energy, bright colour combinations uplift both the creator and the user, blending creativity with vibrant self-expression.” – Violetta Onishchenko
2025’s Top Macrame Trends Patterns: Geometrics and Fluid Forms
Patterns in 2025 are all about versatility and creativity, blending structure with fluidity.
3D Structure: Italian Valentina Russo founder of Valirù Handcrafted has no doubts! Here’s what she shares with me: “I think that textured and three-dimensional knots, will become increasingly popular, especially in 3D macramé creations. This technique allows for the creation of pieces that are not only decorative but also structural, like lamps, sculptures, or art installations. Three-dimensional patterns stand out for their depth and their ability to transform simple cords into striking, dynamic objects. Additionally, patterns inspired by nature will reflect the growing desire for a connection with the natural world.

Larissa Mendez from Rakè Boho Decor tells me:”The growing use of AI in design is unlocking fresh and innovative possibilities, offering unique solutions when inspiration feels elusive. This fusion between creativity and technology is reshaping how macrame artists approach their craft.”
Organic Flow: “Asymmetry and rounded shapes reflect a free-spirited, bohemian vibe,” shares Nghi Ho. These designs balance fluidity and structure, allowing for individuality.
Intricate Geometrics: “Graphic, repetitive patterns demand precision, but their clean lines are striking,” says Silvia Lesko. Perfect for minimalist designs, these patterns provide a modern, elegant edge.
“The world of tiles has inspired me since the beginning I started my journey“ – Larissa Melendez, Rakè Boho Decor
