I haven't done macrame since the 70's but this may get me into it again. Of course, knowing cats, they will refuse to use it, but it's worth a try.

[@coppergryphon7787]

Just tell them it's not for them 😼

[@JuuC]

You can put a bit of catnip on the bed

[@kenomouse5494]

I'm right there with you! Haven't thought about macrame since the 70s and it's fun to see it coming back. And WOW! People are creative!! I only remember a couple BASIC knots but what some people are making and doing that I've seen lately, this macrame really is artwork! I am not necessarily a cat person but from the looks of this cat at the end, it appears to be quite happy and content! 🤗🐱🤗🐱🤗

[@judykaiser430]

My cats were leery at first of their hammock but when they were finally too curious they tried it and loved it.

[@MR-rj2qw]

They will not refuse to dismember it…

[@mazfernandes2173]

I don’t have a cat and I’ve never had an interest in macrame & yet I watched the entire tutorial. Was beautifully done.

[@francisgill1929]

ME TOO, LOL

[@felineoverlordservant2419]

👏 An excellent SAFE option for a hanging cat bed. I’ve seen so many designs on KZbin that I wish were deleted so people couldn’t copy. Cats can get stuck and hang to death. Apologies for being morbid but a safe design is one where they can’t stick their heads through the ropes.

[@tuff8200]

Thank you!! This is the most simplified macrame cat hammock yet, the cutest I have seen and exactly what I had in mind. Can't wait to make it! 😻😽

[@dorishauer5995]

My first large macrame. Very easy to do. Thanks a lot. I do actually not have a cat but i hope to have one in the near future and i hope she will like it.

[@cloudpusher1792]

You can put something on it as a decor for the moment😀😀

[@lililinan3776]

¡Está precioso! Lo haré para regalárselo a una amiga que hace poco adoptó un gatito.

[@karaatter]

Omg I hope she / he likes it 🤍🤍

[@user-ib7wy4oq9e]

Aw how cute. Do you have a cat yet?

[@Mula77o]

First time using macrame and it came out awesome. I got a lot of compliments and my cat loves it. Although, I think I got the measurements wrong because my strings were a lot shorted, but it was an easy fix. I extended the strings by adding the additional strings to the middle stings, while doing the single knots. It didn't change the pattern or appearance. I had a lot of fun, thank you!!

[@cloudpusher1792]

Nice job! And brilliant improvising!

[@schalkeperle1673]

Nein du hast die Messung nicht falsch gemacht Die Maße stimmen ÜBERHAUPT GAR NICHT Ich bin ebenfalls stocksauer Weil die Maße wirklich gar nicht stimmen

Hola! Te acordás aproximadamente cuánta cuerda le agregaste?

Wonderfully relaxing macrame tutorial! Our kitty cat would love this. Feeling inspired ♡

[@cloudpusher1792]

😘😘

[@lms1068]

I had no idea all those knots I learned in school and taught children later on are macrame. Thank you for your video, I think I'll try making this for my babies.

[@cristinafeitosabarreto1691]

Que lindo, obrigada pela inspiração!! Seu trabalho é maravilhoso 💕

[@teeteepimentalrogers4386]

I can't wait to make this. It's beautiful! Thank you for making this easy to follow along. I'm new and I beleive I can make this because of your tutorial. ❤🤗

[@Frutillisima]

I fell in love😍 never did macrame, I love sewing and embroidery, I'm definitely going to try some macrame at my embroidery hoops and after some practice, I'm gonna try this for my cat😻😻😻 He's gonna love it! Thank you SO much! You are amazing! Hi from Argentina💖

[@ingenewell5359]

Thank-you! I use to do lots of macrame by pattern. I need to try this! I have the perfect spot! 👍🇨🇦

[@hanaeverill4308]

Awesome. Now I just need a cat♡

How cute! The hammock and the cat too. ❤️❤️

Thank you very much for sharing step by step how to make this beautiful Hammock ❤❤❤

Made my first one ... going to gift it to my daughter for her cat.

[@Beaker4Remps]

Thank you.I've never done this before and really enjoyed it .Really appreciate the video.It is also one of the most cat friendly ones I have seen, IF you can keep them off the cord while trying to make it!

[@cloudpusher1792]

Hahhahhahah, cats love messing with cords🤣🤣🤣

[@Beaker4Remps]

@@cloudpusher1792 I made this for my son's cat who 'does not like anything much'.. until now.She has been sat in it day and night since getting it a month ago.A huge success.Thank you again!

[@teeteepimentalrogers4386]

[@linarodriguez2270]

[@has8167]

I am going home to do this tonight. This will be great for our new forever home, well. forever, is a long time, lets just say a fresh start. Thank you

[@lindacase6861]

Wonderful tutorial and very nice design! I watched the video twice and read all the comments - could you please give the approximate length of completed half knots used between the two hoops (I don’t want to run out of rope). Thanks so much!💐

[@eepinwillow]

You've probably moved on in the project since this was months ago, but based on some other comments from the creator and how mine turned out, they should be about 15-17 inches. All you have to do with those cords after the spiral half knots is a lark's head knot on each to attach the bottom hoop, then about 5 half knots again to finish them off. So you don't need too much extra length after the spiral.

[@amandawebber9816]

this is a great tutorial! so easy to follow! 🥰 I am wanting to make one of these, but i was wondering if I were going to use braided cord, would 3mm be sturdy enough? also, if it is, would the length of each cord be about the same as your measurements?

[@beverlybell604]

Love this! Is there a materials list Ive missed? Thanks very much

[@joanneharvie4331]

This is a great tutorial and fabulous idea. I have several cat lover friends so this will make a pretty awesome gift for them. What are the final measurements of this hanger from the top of the hanging loop to the bottom of the basket. I have ordered all the supplies and I am read to start creating. Thank you so much. Cheers.

[@sandralucia1091]

Seu tutorial é ótimo. Fácil de aprender e ainda ficou uma gracinha! Obrigada por compartilhar.

[@kzookid2051]

I haven't done much macrame since the '80s, but this puts me in a definite mood to make some cat swings for my guys to use this coming summer. Great video, very clear and easy to follow even for beginners. Your music selections are wonderfully relaxing and the perfect background for tying some knots. I've subbed and look forward to exploring your channel.

[@jenniferclick8208]

I have made one this size and another one for a friend 7 feet tall! Her house has 10 foot ceilings! It is absolutely breathtaking. and her cats love it! Now everyone wants one!

[@jewelc2828]

How big is the one in this video? I'm wondering because I want to make this, but have low ceilings.

[@vaxxyourass3436]

I love this. 😃 I might 😢make the bits on the bottom closer together for safety reasons I’m sure everyone knows if that pillows falls off or shifts any kitty could falls out. Or worse, it could get tangled and trapped. Or a leg could get stuck. I’m sure everyone is being safe. I love this idea Super cute .

Ich habe meine Katzenschaukel fertig, wirklich toll geworden. Was ich aber sagen muss ist, dass die Angabe der Schnüre nicht stimmen kann. Ich habe 8 Meter und 3 Meter genommen und bin gerade so hingekommen. Meine Empfehlung wäre, mindestens 8,5 Meter und 3,5 Meter zu nehmen. Gerne auch mehr, wenn die Schaukel länger sein soll. Abschneiden kann man immer. Ansonsten tolle Anleitung und ich kann nur empfehlen, es auszuprobieren 😊
