I love your commentary, it's so truthful and funny! Great work xx

[@CurlyMade]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@dawnm1392]

So... I kept track of my calculations while I did this tutorial. (And subtracted all the extras that I cut off). In case anyone wants a more detailed estimate. --- 1 x Long cord - 140cm (I did the technique at 3:05 where she folded one side shorter - same as the rest of the strands - and then used the long end, which is why my long cord is much shorter than her suggested length of 230cm) 5 x Starting 'small' cords - 90cm 5 x filler cords - 90cm 5 x filler cords - 80cm 5 x filler cords - 70cm 5 x filler cords - 60cm 5 x filler cords - 50cm I used a total of 25 strands to fill. You use the long filler cords first, and shorten them as you go. --- My coaster ended up being 9-10cm across (the braided part) plus a 4cm fringe. The lengths above will ensure you have space to trim. Hope that's helpful! --- Thank you @Curly Made for the tutorial!

[@CurlyMade]

Thank you, I was so focused on making the video that I forgot to keep track of measurements. This will help out so many makers ❤️

[@melissagorogo1008]

I'd like to make a larger ones of this, say 30cm wide or even metre wide as a floor mat. I have 6mm cords to use. I guess it's all the same technique...I'm thinking I have to multiply x 3 for a 30cm mat

[@idawnsm]

@@melissagorogo1008 I'd advise also to make your Long Cord extra long (just in case! so you have space to keep going if necessary), especially since the thickness of the cord is different. And be careful about the tension of your cord as you knot (I tried to make a larger one and it kept curling into itself).

[@melissagorogo1008]

@@idawnsm hey thank you for that. Am a newbie so any help is so much appreciated. I started a mini size last night and need to re-do. My brain and knots!!!

[@prouddirectioners18]

do you have measurements for a place mat diameter 30 cm?

[@susankelley8705]

I'd love to see these done as minis & made into earrings!

[@hannahevans8842]

Thanks for the video! Helped me understand better how to make it... Personally Ive used a wired pet brush to brush out the 3ply string much easier than the comb:)

[@janicebradford9780]

Wow, I love it but I’m going to have to watch a couple of times before making. I love the look of the coasters.

[@michelleenglish602]

So cute! These would look great dip dyed around the edges too.

[@CurlyMade]

Great idea

[@kristinmoore3367]

This is a wonderful tutorial! Making one now! As far as worrying about dirtying them, I am making mine in charcoal grey cord to match my chairs and to hide drips and spills. :)

Hello , thanks I just finished mine ... and as a tip I put hairspray on my final project to finish it , maybe it also repels stains ,

[@CurlyMade]

That's a great idea!

[@traceyhall9708]

The 230cm long cord is defiantly needed for those I done the 140cm long cord like the previous comment got to the 60cm fill in cords and had to pull it all apart because it long cord wasn't long enough after doing 2 hrs work.

[@marissanguyen7060]

OMG-- great idea to spray with protecting spray! They are so beautiful but I would be worried to get them dirty!

[@lizbee726]

Can you believe someone wanted to make a floor mat out of macrame? Can you imagine spending all the hours and money making one and then walking on it with dirty shoes/feet? Crazy idea. 🤣🤣👎🙄😫🙏

Very nice tutorial.. You explained every step very thoroughly and easy to understand. I cannot wait to make my first one today. My hubby gave me some cording just like what you used and now I know what I want to do with it... keep up the good work. I will recommend your tutorial to all my Macrame friends...

[@Christy8134]

Thanks so much for sharing this tut! Just a few tips tho. 1. You had way too much wasted cord, so use less next time. 2. Cut your fringe as close as you can before combing, this way you’ll have less to unravel. 3. Before the combing process take your fringe and vigorously slap in against something solid, for this size piece I like to use my thigh. I discovered this little trick by accident, but it works miracles by separating the twisted rope a good bit before having to comb 👏🏽 3. Yes, they stain very easily! I even dyed my cord dark green bf I made another coaster, in a diff design, and spots are still very obvious. I’m thinking maybe treating them with starch may help, but... 🤷🏼‍♀️ Again thanks for sharing 😘

[@CurlyMade]

Your tips are so good, thank you so much ❤️

[@private15]

Curly Made scotch gard spray is for water proofing rugs and cloth furniture, prevents stains. Try that.

[@rhondapickup5714]

I'm confused as to when to attached longer piece? Good tutorial thank you.

[@Christy8134]

Rhonda Pickup once you start you’ll see that there will be a gap, and even if you try to keep moving along you will need to fill it.

[@mznisha]

AMAZING 😍😍❤ so simple and worth watching!

[@Nichole111]

You really have patience 😳 I wanted to say congratulations! Also for the video. 🤗

[@tingliasmr]

I heard that using a cat brush is great for combing out the threads at the end and also that white is the easiest colour to deal with regarding stains as you can just bleach them out.P.S I'm writing a blog post up about macrame and I've featured your coasters and video and added your info i.e website and youtube links. :)

[@CurlyMade]

Hey, thank you so much for the feature and also the tips, my dog has a brush that I guess its similar to that cat brush so I will try try it out.

[@helenai13]

I use an animal metal brush with very fine bristles and combs fringes wonderfully

[@feniar.7458]

Hello , thank you for this beautiful and well explained tutorial. These coaster are such an inspiration, i really love to make those. I was thinking to make a carpet with this pattern, what you would recommend as the length of the strings to begin with? How long should they be so to make a round carpet?

[@joettabrasko7578]

Fabric protector would be good on it and I think washing it would be okay hand washing it and letting it dry

[@CurlyMade]

Thank you

When you fold the small cords in half is the length 90 cm then ? Or 90 cm cut in a straight line and when folded in half it's less then 90 cm?

[@styxonfire3246]

TIP : place a plate or bowl on top to trim around the excess cords.

[@helenai13]

[@CurlyMade]

Glad you liked it ❤️ thank you

[@jazzmoos5382]

I wonder if a water repellent spray, like what you’d use on shoes would help to keep them clean. But I don’t know if they’d be okay against heated pots. Or, just soak them in vinegar and baking soda when they get dirty.

[@CurlyMade]

Yeah, the cord is cotton so I guess they're also easy to wash

[@deew.7989]

Hi! I am a little confused at about 3:11 in the video where you go back and show the folded cord that has the one long end. I am not sure exactly where this is supposed to be placed. Is it one of the five cords that you do the larks head knots for in the beginning or ??? Also, please confirm the length of this cord. Otherwise, very easy to understand and very pretty! Thank you!

[@CurlyMadePT]

Yes it is one of the five cords, sorry I dont remember the length

[@deew.7989]

Thank you for your reply! OK, now within the five cords, where should it be placed? On the end? In the middle? I’m a little confused as to its purpose. Sorry! I am new to this and just want to be sure I am doing it right. 🙂 Thank you for your help!

[@CurlyMade]

I put it last, but it doesn't really mater since it will be put into the circle. This linger cord is the one that will tie around all the other ones

[@deew.7989]

Curly Made Thank you so much for always replying so quickly! OK, I’m going to give it a shot! 🙂

Hey. Nice video! I have a problem though, whenever I go further I reach a point where the following knot is really far away from the main cord. Should I add more cords or what would you recommend?

[@a.becker7503]

I am having the same problem! Help!

[@CurlyMade]

I don't remember if I came across the same problem, I don't think so, but maybe try adding a new filler cord in between each of the main ones, see if that is enough, if not maybe test with two filler cords, but I would not add more than that

[@emilyelvedal1527]

Hi! I didnt add enough filler cords and mine is curling up.. Do you know if it possible to iron it flat?

nope, you have to add the filler ones.

[@kristelloo]

I am trying to make big ones so i cam put on a wall do you think it aould look good?

That seems amazing. Depending on the stiffness of the cord, after you finish make sure the ends stay upright, maybe use fabric stiffener ou even hairspray. Let me know the result

[@styxonfire3246]

Use cloths special glue like the did with doilies in the old day.

Mine keeps turning up into a little bowl shape. How do I keep it flatter?

Here's three things you can try: iron the piece once in a while, do not pull on the cords too much or tie them too tight, and don't forget to add plenty of filler cords. Try these and let me know if it worked.

How much cord is needed in total to make 4 - 6 coasters?

You might be tightening the cords too much, or not adding enough filler cords. Try that and see if it helps, you can also iron the piece one in a while to keep it flat.
