How to Create Macrame Flowers

I want to share this video showing how I created these macrame flowers. They measure 15" across when completed. I am teaching myself macrame and this is one of my early projects, so it is beginner friendly. You will only be using two macrame knots - the larks head and the square knot.
Materials I used are:
* Yarn Bee 5mm macrame rope (from Hobby Lobby)
* Metal Ring - mine was 3 1/2" inside diameter and 5/16" thick. I got mine from Amazon here - a.co/d/3zi592x
* Plastic tapestry or yarn needles (for working the ends in)
* Sharp pair of scissors
For my size flowers I cut 12 cords 7' long. Each petal takes two cords. The video will explain the rest.
I am recently retired from creating visual art and have been yearning to learn new crafts. So I am teaching myself to weave, crochet and do macrame. I am also learning to work with air dry clay. We are never too old to learn fun new skills!! (I didn’t start painting until 50). If you would like to see my art, please visit donna-mibus.pi...

Excellent tutorial video! Way to go! And now I have to make a few!

Thank you so much! They are rather addicting, lol. Took me about an hour to make each flower (but I'm probably slower than average since I'm still pretty new at this)

@@donnamibusart That’s a good pace.
