1. Square Knot

The square knot is the cornerstone of macramé projects, used in everything from plant hangers to wall hangings. It's a versatile knot that, once mastered, allows you to create a variety of patterns. The Classic Elegance Plant Hangers by Boho Macramé utilize this knot, showcasing its simplicity and beauty.

The spiral knot creates a twisting pattern, perfect for adding texture and interest to your projects. It's an excellent way to elevate simple designs, such as bracelets or keychains, available in the Budding Artisans DIY Kits.


3. Half Hitch

This knot can create intricate patterns and textures. The half hitch is especially useful for adding detailed borders to wall hangings or for creating a net for plant hangers.


4. Lark's Head Knot

Ideal for attaching your cord to a dowel or ring, the lark's head knot is the starting point for many macramé projects. It's simple yet essential, forming the foundation for designs like the Boho Chic Wall Hangings.


5. Diagonal Clove Hitch

This knot is used to create diagonal lines and patterns, adding a dynamic element to your work. It's perfect for making intricate wall hangings or adding detail to plant hangers.

The gathering knot is a method of neatly securing a bunch of cords together at the beginning or end of a piece. It's often used to finish off a wall hanging or to create a tassel for a bohemian touch.

A basic knot used in macramé and jewelry making, the overhand knot is versatile and can be used as a decorative element or to secure your work.
