Macrame' Bag


I recently made a new craft bag for myself. It's big and blue. It incorporates over 237 yards of craft cord. It uses a Lark's head, Square, Double half hitch, and Half hitch. I think I spent about 8 hours on it.

The cords were so long that I improvised a rack to hang it on while I worked on it. I used a cross stitch stand. I clamped a yardstick in the stand clamp. I used two large metal paper clamps to hold each edge of my holding cord, I stiffed the middle in the clamp with the yardstick. It worked really well.
