Make your own Christmas Tree Macrame DIY Kit (Green)

Product Information

Make alternating square knots below the first one, using the far left and far right sets of four cords. In this project, you’ll find the lark’s head knot, vertical lark’s head knot, double half-hitch knot, berry knot (which is made up of a few square knots), reverse lark’s head plus half hitch, and the gathering knot. If you are new to macramé, we recommend learning with a macramé starter kit, like our Kami Wall Hanging kit Step 8: Attach a strand of 120 cm cord onto the far-right cord with a Reverse Lark's Head Plus Half hitch (RLHPHH).

Item details

I incorporated pearl beads into the design as little ornaments on the tree, but you can replace this with wooden beads or any other type of bead you like. Step 10: Repeat the same side pattern as above, starting with the third cord from the right. Start with one DHH knot, thread through a bead, and close with one more DHH knot. Repeat on the left. Step 1: Cut 20 pieces of cord eight inches in length, and set aside. Cut one piece of cord about 20 inches in length. Fold the long piece in half and tie a knot below the fold, leaving a two inch loop at the top. String the cord ends through the bead, and pull the bead up to the knot. This will be the center piece of your tree. Step 4: Cut a piece of twine to about ten inches. Fold the piece in half and tie a knot half an inch from the top. Attach the twine to the ring with another larks head knot. Step 2:Attach two strands of 160cm cords onto the right-side and two strands on the left-side with Lark's Head knots.

Step 6 (optional): Use a comb or brush to fray the branch pieces (this part can take a little time, but just keep combing). Trim the tree shape, if needed. And there you have it! This gorgeous ornament is bound to bring festive cheer to your home. I like the texture the berry knots brought to this design. It can even be kid-friendly too! If you are looking for a thoughtful Christmas gift handmade with love, then this Christmas tree ornament may be right for you.I recommend making a knot at the end of your cord strands to prevent the ends from fraying while knotting. Cord Lengths Step 11: Attach a strand of 80 cm cord onto each of the far-right and far-left cords with an RLHPHH. Step 6:Take the third cord from the right as an anchor cord for a Double Half Hitch (DHH) knot to the right. Step 1: Cut 16 pieces of cord eight inches in length. Take one piece of cord and create a larks head knot around the wood ring by folding the piece in half, putting the loop through the center of the ring, and pulling the ends of the cord through the loop. Step 14: Take the far-left cord as an anchor cord for eight DHH knots to the right. After each DHH knot, include the working cord with the anchor cord group for the next DHH.

Step 4: Take the second cord from the right and make a Vertical Lark's Head knot onto the far-right cord. Repeat the same on the left-side. Step 3: Make your second branch by tying the same knot, but this time putting the bottom loop to the right and top loop to the left.The best part is, it doesn’t take too much time to make since it’s fairly small and it will make the perfect Boho-style accessory for any Christmas tree.
