I’ve shared this tutorial on my latest Instagram post, however, I also wanted to add here so you can all find it again easily and the images are much bigger!

This is a simple and effective little project that you can do it even if you have never tried macrame before. Give it a go and if you post a picture on Instagram or Facebook, please use #startacreativejourney

Material:

10 x 1.2 meters of 3mm rope

1x 30cm piece of string

Masking tape

Measuring tape

Scissors Comb

Tutorial:

STEP 1- Fix your string with masking tape on your tabletop. (picture below)

STEP 2-Using a lark knot (you can learn how to make it here) place the 10 pieces of rope on your piece of string. (picture below).

STEP 3- Measure 6cm under your string and start a row of 5 square knots (you can learn how to make it here ).

STEP 4- Continue to make alternated rows of 5 and 4 square knots util you have 11 rows. (picture below)

STEPS 5- Cut the ropes under the string and then measure 6cm under your last row of square knots and cut the ropes. ( picture below)

STEPS 6- Unravel the rope’s ends on both sides and with the help of the comb brush them. ( picture below)

Voila’, you have your coaster!
