You did a great job in this tutorial, Rachel! I use to macrame all the time in the late 70's and 80's and made so many different things. I am now 75 and wanted to do my old favorite hobby again. You were able to get me started on a few knots, which is all I needed. The plant hanger turned out so nice, thanks to you. A wine rack I made back in the day is on my radar now.

[@RachelColton]

Yay! I’m glad you are getting back into macrame! A wine rack sounds very cool!

How sweet! The American version of my 4th grade school craft project. I grew up in Mexico and I can only give credit to our indigenous population for such wonderful, simple yet beautiful hand-woven creations. I really appreciate the substitution of the original yute or ixtle (yucca fibers) with macrame. My little girl's fingers were sored after weaving the ixtle but it was a lot of fun and my mother loved the plant hanger :) Peace to you all!

This is such a well-done tutorial! Simple, clear, and the best part is having the instructions in the description too. I've made multiple plant hangers using this, and referring back to the description for measurements has been very helpful.

Thank you! I’m glad this tutorial has been helpful!

This is exactly what I was looking for. I have a huge plant I want to hang and it's not going to fit in the average-sized hanger. The way you showed this, I can easily see how to adapt it to a larger plant. Such a beautiful yet simple design. I am off to Hobby Lobby now! Thank you.

Great tutorial. I made so many of these with my mum in the early 80s when I was a teenager and sadly they all got thrown out when my mum passed away so I’ve just bought the materials to make one for myself now that they’re back in fashion again. Greetings from Scotland

Really good tutorial, I knew the square knot prior to watching but it was very well explained. Metric measurements are approx 3.7m per length, found there was a bit of excess with that which I'm sure someone would be able to tweak if they had more skills/understanding than the beginner that I am!!

Your instructions seem very easy to follow so far. I've just started my first macrame piece and it's pretty big for a first timer!

I attempted to watch another video so that I could do a spiral down the center mixing two colors, but that was an epic FAIL! I KEPT messing up over and over. So, now I've moved to the very outer edge and I'm watching your video trying to figure out what to do! Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos❤️❤️❤️

I had a girls night last night and we all made this hanger! I love how it turned out but when I got to the end I had two verrrrrrrry short ropes and 2 very long ropes in each group. I followed the wing span advice... did I do something wrong? Just start with longer rope next time? Or do you somehow switch on and off with your long & short rope?! I'm new at macrame!

[@RachelColton]

Erika G that sounds so fun! You didn’t do anything wrong. The working strings get used up faster than the filler strings. For certain projects you can use shorter filler strings and longer working strings but it can get complicated with a project like this. You can switch the inner and outer strings and leave a little space to create a cool design. Or just use your scraps for a smaller project like a keychain or earrings!

Rachel Colton I used about 4.3 meters per string (8 strings total). Plus you need about 0.6 meters for each gathering knot. I used about 35.6 meters total for the entire project. Some viewers had issues with their project being too short so you may want to go longer. I hope that helps. Ultice unos 4,3 metros por cuerdo (8 cuerdas en total). Ademas, necesitas alrededor de 0,6 metros por cada nudo de recoleccion. Utilice unos 35,6 metros en total para todo el proyecto.

Hi, it was my first macrame project and it worked very good. The strings (4 meters) were so long so that I made a second a little bit bigger plant hanger directly under the bottom knot of first. It looks great. It will be a birthday present for a friend. Thank you for posting your video.

[@RachelColton]

You’re welcome ☺️!

[@christopherfrederick2164]

could you tell me why I keep getting short string on the sides while the middle stay long

[@RachelColton]

Christopher Frederick yes! The middle (filler) strings aren’t used for much so they remain long. The outer (working) strings get used up making all the knots. If you are afraid you might run out of string, you can swap the inner and outer strings at some point in your design. If you make loose knots at the switch point it actually makes a cool design. Depending on the project you can make the filler strings shorter to begin with or just use the cut offs for smaller projects. I hope that helps!

Yes. Some viewers had issues with theirs being two short so you may want to do three times.

Thank you so much for this! I had never tried macrame but this tutorial was so clear and easy to follow, I can now hang my strawberries inside the sunny porch where the birds can't get them ♥️

[@RachelColton]

Yay! Glad you liked it! Hanging strawberry plants sounds amazing!
