【คลาสเวิร์คช็อป】Macrame Free Weaving Wall Hanging - Suitable for Beginners

**/ What is Macrame /** Macrame is an art form that uses only your hands to freely weave cords into beautiful patterns, without the need for tools like crochet hooks, knitting needles, or looms. Macrame originated from the Arabic word "migramah" in the 13th century, meaning "weaver." At that time, it referred to decorative textiles for camels and horses, which were not only aesthetically pleasing but also kept bothersome insects away. The Moors later introduced Macrame to France, and it then spread throughout Europe. It was introduced to England in the late 17th century and became immensely popular during the Victorian era, often used for home decor. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50061044438_f6b024ed2b.jpg **/ Class Location /** At Saidu Cafe, a modern Siamese cat cafe located near the Qizhang MRT station in Xindian. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54901296374_3fc785dcf0_c.jpg When you need a break, you can relax and de-stress by visiting the cat room. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54901296384_8d1b8969df_c.jpg **/ Course Features /** * Guidance from a professional weaving instructor, enabling beginners to complete their own piece independently. * Emphasis on students mastering basic knots while enjoying the fun of Macrame, encouraging them to freely create their unique designs. * Introduction to the origins of Macrame. * Overview of different types of cords. * Instruction on using a weaving frame. * Gift packaging in a paper bag is provided. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50061611481_5f649bc77e.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50061608056_5602b8c25d.jpg ** / Four Basic Knot Tutorials /** * Lark's Head Knot The first step in Macrame: a method to secure a cord to a dowel. * Square Knot A knot used extensively in a piece; imagine it as a flat fill technique in sketching. * Spiral Knot A knot that twists left or right, creating a sense of dimension. * Half Hitch Knot / Clove Hitch Knot Used to create clean lines and can be manipulated to form waves or any desired shape.
