Micro-Macrame differs from
regular Macrame only because the thickness of the
materials used is much finer. This includes the
beads, pendants, and other decorations. The
delicate cords used in Micro-Macrame are usually
between 0.5mm and 2mm thick.
When making handcrafted jewelry, controlling
fine materials can be challenging. Youre
basically working with threads instead of cords.
This requires you to have more patience, along
with skill and knowledge. See
Knotting Tips below.
Important:
Make sure you know how to tie all the Macrame
Knots in the pattern,
BEFORE trying to make the projects in
this section of Free Macrame Patterns.
Go to the Learn
Macrame section and practice
the decorative knots until you are completely
comfortable with them. Each pattern below will
also have a link to those pages.
