Crazy for macrame. Discover our qualities!

Macramé has become one of the most popular techniques of the moment. Although it was decades ago when it reached its peak, experts have managed to revive macramé to bring it to a more than recognized position; now we can find it in decorative crafts as well as in fashion and accessories. Did you know that macramé means knot in French? This is no coincidence, as this technique consists precisely of making decorative knots with the hands. As it only requires two tools that we all have, it is very easy to do and follow. So, more and more yarn enthusiasts are getting started with this technique. By creating a series of knots, we can create ideal vintage-inspired pieces that will serve to decorate our home or to wear accessories such as backpacks or bags, and even bracelets.

Choose your ideal quality!

If you would like to get started in the world of macramé, we recommend Caricia Cordón, as it can be worked with knitting needles or with your own hands without any problems. Plus, it's waterproof! Therefore, it adapts perfectly to your outdoor projects, such as this hanging planter, which will give a warm touch to your patio or garden. You can also use the variety Caricia Eco Cordón, the sustainable version of recycled cotton from the previous item.
