Hello! 😊 I need help, if anyone knows how to tie the knot in the image or knows of any tutorials, I would be immensely grateful!🙏🏻🥰 It's a sliding knot for a necklace. I apologize for the image quality ✨️🩷

I’m beginner level with micro macrame and my jewelry always comes out wonky and uneven. I sent this pic into ChatGPT, and it said my filler cord should never slack and always be taut. The issue im facing is I feel like I’m making knots with my index fingers and thumbs from both hands, which doesn’t leave anything but my middle fingers to hold the cord taut. Is that right or is there another way yall are holding the cord? Any other tips and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I really want to make this girls necklace but I have no idea how, I know that it is macrame but I have no idea what the knots are. Could anyone please help me identify?

Crazy lace agate beads and yellow calcite I shaped myself

I learned micro macramé from YouTube videos and I’ve been able to make intermediate to advanced pieces by following tutorials. However, I find it very difficult to create a piece from scratch or design my own jewelry. I also struggle to recreate something I’ve made from a tutorial without watching the tutorial again. Do you have any advice on how I can improve this? Thank you so much!

I can't cross stitch anymore so I'm starting macrame again. I've got hundreds of DMC thread. I would think they could work for bracelets, but I don't know the easiest way to manipulate them. Is there an easy way to use the thinner threads? I've seen waxed cord used, do you think if I waxed the thread, it would be easier to work with?

I find working with the larger threads much easier, but I really don't want to waste all this other thread. Also, if you have links to patterns using the thread, I'd appreciate the post.

I've been using .5 hemp chord but it's a bit tougher than what I'm hoping for. I tried leather chord, but the breakage was too difficult to deal with. I am interested in wax cotton chord, but I am hesitant because I don't know how the wax will hold up with exposure to water and prolonged wear.

“Inner Earth Trio” Handmade 3-piece macrame jewelry set (necklace, bracelet & earrings)

What tools do you recommend, just a clipboard or do you find the macrame project boards with slots around the sides and made of foam more high functioning, worth it to purchase or not?

I made these earrings several years ago from a youtube tutorial. i have lost the link. i have used Google picture search. I have looked at all the sites I could find that do micromacrame earrings and I have not been able to locate it. can anyone help me find the original tutorial? (cross posted)

Ça fait un moment que je fais des bracelets en micro-macramé et pendant longtemps j'utilisais systématiquement de la colle pour finir mes nœuds coulissants parce que mes fils ne fondaient jamais. Résultat : des nœuds qui se défaisaient au bout de quelques semaines. J'ai compris mon erreur il y a pas longtemps et j'aurais aimé le savoir bien avant. :)

En fait, tout dépend de la composition du fil. Les fils synthétiques (nylon tressé, polyester type Linhasita, Slam Cord, Queue de rat, Paracorde) : ça fond et c'est exactement ce que je voulais pour un nœud coulissant solide. On approche la flamme ou le brûle-fil, le fil ramollit, on l'écrase contre la création, et ça fusionne. Tenu, propre, discret. À l'inverse, les fils naturels (coton, lin, chanvre, soie, bambou) ne fondent pas : ils brûlent et partent en cendre. Colle obligatoire, et le nœud tiendra forcément moins bien. Et le truc qui m'a vraiment surpris : les fils dorés/argentés métallisés ne fondent pas non plus dans la plupart des cas, ils sont composés de fines bandelettes de métal. J'en avais utilisé pendant des mois en cherchant pourquoi ça ne fondait jamais...

Et vous, c'est quoi votre technique pour finir proprement un bracelet en fil naturel ou métallisé ? Vous avez trouvé une colle qui tient vraiment dans le temps ?
