Macrame is a decorative knotting craft that can be used to easily create beautiful and functional pieces of art to decorate your home. In this class, you’ll make a gorgeous wall hanging while learning the five macrame knots that are the foundation of every macrame project – Larks Head, Square Knot, Half Square Knot Sinnet, Double Half Hitch, and Wrap Knot. This old (circa 13th century) technique can also be used to create jewelry, belts, bags, and soft furnishings, and you’ll leave with the knowledge you need to create your own modern pieces. Katrina (also known as the Knotty Professor) will provide all materials and plenty of inspiration to launch your knotty journey.

Katrina Stone is an award-winning fiber artist who enjoys teaching sewing, wet felting, and macrame at the John C. Campbell Folk School, SEFAA, and other regional locations. A fiber fanatic since childhood, Katrina is the current President of the Southeast Fiber Arts Alliance. She makes her home in Gwinnett County with her husband and their fun-loving Boston terriers.
