Vintage
knotsare those decorative
knots used in the late 1800's - 1900's. Many
knots created during this time are often quite
unique, and you may not find them in modern
Macrame books.

variety of knots that can be combined in
interesting ways. Some have been around for over
2000 years. Entire families used to create a
variety of elaborate combinations to form new
Chinese knots.
Several basic techniques are listed near the
bottom of the Learn Macrame page. To progress in
skill, practice them several times, until you
can combine them to create your own works of
art.
