Instructions in 8 steps Knot-by-knot and this flower pot hanging basket out of macramé yarn comes into being and becomes a true eye-catcher in your home. And this is how it works:

Step 1

Cut the yarns as follows:
4× 3.0 m
4× 3.5 m
2× 1.5 m

Step 2

Lay the yarn threads measuring 4× 3.5 m and 4× 3.0 m half of each across the ring. Then gather all the yarn threads together and wind the yarn thread of 1.5 m around them to form a 4 cm long gathering knot (see picture Gathering Knot).

Step 3

Now divide the yarn threads into four strands, taking 2× 3.0 m (= conductive yarn) and 2× 3.5 m (rug yarn) per strand.

Step 4

Start knotting after 10 cm and make 45 spiral knots per strand (see picture Spiral Knot).

Step 5

Now divide the strands into 2 yarn threads each (1× conductive yarn and 1× rug yarn) and put them together. Then make a weaver knot after every 15 cm (see picture Weaver's Knot).

Step 6

Divide the strands again into 2 yarn threads each (1× conductive yarn and 1× rug yarn) and put them together. Make a weaver's knot after every 8 cm (see picture Weaver's Knot).

Step 7

Then gather all the yarn threads together aligned flush and after another 20 cm wind them with the second yarn thread of 1.5 m to form a 4 cm long gathering knot (see picture Gathering Knot).

Step 8

Cut the yarn threads to the desired length (herein 25 cm) and unravel them individually.
