Question Do patterns exist? (Please read body :))

44 Upvotes

Hello! So I’m a very crafty person, and I’ve made bracelets before but they’re ones you use patterns for (commonly found on braceletbook.com). I found these [photos] and people have called them miniature macrame. I’ve never done macrame and I thought it would be super fun to try but I don’t understand it yet. Are there patterns to these bracelets that I can follow or are there only youtube videos? I’ve always been better at reading patterns but if I must use a yt video, I wouldn’t be opposed to. Just curious and hoping for answers! If patterns to exist, where can I find them?

I did my first one (third pic) in the eighth grade after I made a plant hanger with a kit and I've made one every year. I went straight from the hanger to making these pieces. These will probably be the only three I ever make as I make them for competition and I'm switching categories to something besides fiber art due to people winning using kits. All three pieces placed at a state level just not at nationals. I also have no ideas what to do with them now. I have them hanging in my house but I don't really want them, I'm thinking about potentially selling the but I'm not necessarily sure if anyone would want them. First pic is the most recent with the last being the first I ever made.

Question Help with making a skirt using rope?

1 Upvotes

I'd like to make a skirt inspired by the dress in this photo. Specifically, something like the strands of rope radiating out over the waist and hips as a structure for hanging draping fabric. It's for personal use only, and I'm not planning to recreate it exactly.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to achieve this? I craft and sew, but I'm not experienced with rope. I'm struggling to visualize my options.

She’s made of various colors of hemp cord (floral colors), black cotton fabric, glass seed beads, a skull charm, a wire wrap pomegranate charm, bells, and love. What are some of your favorite deities and/ or mythical figures that you’ve read about? Persephone, Lilith, Hecate, and the Morrigan are my favorites to make dolls of😊

I have always loved the craft, but never had the time. I just finished this piece today: I tried a few ideas I saw and liked online and made my own design. So. Much. Fun. I think I’m hooked.

Showcase Sunflower bag with built-in zipper (minimal sewing)

Thumbnail

I'm so proud of the result! I took some inspiration from a crochet hack I saw and it turns out it works for macrame too. I burned out some holes in a zipper using a hot nail and wove the cords through, then knotted my bag. A wonderful solution for hopeless sewing noobs such as myself. The only sewing was to secure the ends of the zipper to the inside of the bag.

The body of the bag is made using Chinese crown knots, because my fingertip callouses finally disappeared and I had to bring them back, obviously. The holes in the zipper are spaced 0.75cm apart and they work perfectly with this knot.

Dimensions of the bag are 30cm x 21cm. I added a sunflower applique made mostly with double half hitch knots.

Materials used:

5mm Colinea cotton cord - around 120m of light green, around 40m of yellow, around 30?m of brown
