Description:
The Overhand knot is the same one used to tie your shoe.
It’s the easiest Macrame technique, and found in most
patterns. In Vintage Macrame books it is sometimes referred
to as a “hard knot”. This technique is used
primarily in the finishing process. When tied at the end
of a cord, it will prevent unraveling if glue is applied.
You can use it anywhere in a pattern though.
To make a single knot, hold a cord in
both hands. Make a loop, bringing the cord up and over.
Pass the end through the loop. Pull the ends to tighten
it. |
