SUNDAY 1.15-2.45pm
 
This class is predominantly for people who have never tried Macrame or for those wanting a refresher course on the basic knots. You will be making an 8in bamboo ring wall hanging, using cotton cord and will be using the basic knots used  for macramé. The larks head, the 3 ply braid, the square knot, the spiral knot and the alternating half hitch. Don’t be put off if you don’t recognise the names of the knots as you may know them by another name. This is not unusual in the knotting world as knots have many names depending where you come from. The finished item will be yours to take home when the class is over if you have not fully finished your hanging or you require help Deborah will be more than happy to help at her stall.
