    Macrame

    If anyone is looking for macrame patterns, please do not hesitate to ask me, as I have lots of macrame books. There are patterns for Christmas, plant hangers and household items.

    I would be interested in doing an easy project to try macrame. I personally have never done it before. I am also looking for a really easy project to get started again with crocheting. I have been out of it for some time. I thought about making some little Barbie outfits or small pieces for my daughter to refresh my skills!

    Ooohh! Long ago I macramed a plant hanger with a gro-light fixture inside a pot. A matching pot was planted with pothos (or some similar plant). It was about 5' long. It turned out lookin' pretty darn good.

    I was just thinking about trying to macrame some curtains. Would you happen to have any patterns?

    Thanks for reminding me of the good old days (or were they? I can't remember...LOL! Just kidding!)

    Doesn't everything go in cycles, Maryjane? Instead of bellbottom pants we now have bootcut.

    The only "trend" I'd ever hate to see return would be baggy, hanging half off the *** look that's out there.

    I'm another one who has done macrame. I have a ton of macrame patterns but can't find the cord in my area now. There are several sites with free patterns and tutorials but finding the supplies in 2012 could be a problem.
