About this class

Looking for a stylish upgrade for your home? In our workshop: Macrame Basics — Knotting a Hanging Basket, we will show you how to create a real work of art from simple cotton yarn.

After a brief knowledge of materials, you will get to know the most important basic nodes step by step and implement them at your own pace. Under professional guidance, you can design your very individual hanging basket. The best thing about it: You enjoy a creative break in our beautiful old building studio in the 7th district and take home not only your finished work but also an exclusive workbook.

What you’ll do in the class

  • Check-in and materials science: We start off relaxed over coffee or tea. You will receive your high-quality material kit and a brief introduction to the different types of yarn.
  • The basic knots: I'll show you the most important macrame grips. We'll practice together until you feel safe.
  • Knotting your hanging basket: Step by step, you will knot your own work under guidance. You decide for yourself on details such as length or the incorporation of wooden beads.
  • The finish: We close the basket with the twiddle knot and give the fringes the perfect finish.

Who is the class suitable for?

  • Absolute beginners: You don't need any previous knowledge of knotting or crafting. We're starting from scratch.
  • Decor fans and plant lovers: If you want to brighten up your home with handmade Boho elements.
  • Creative time-out seekers: For anyone who wants to switch off for 2.5 hours and work with their hands.
  • DIY enthusiasts: Perfect for trying out a new hobby that's addictive.

Details to remember

What to bring to the class

If you already have a very specific flower pot for which the traffic light should fit, feel free to bring it with you (or simply take the measurements) so that we can adjust the size of the basket perfectly.

  • Your finished work: At the end, you take your homemade hanging basket straight home.
  • Exclusive workbook: A 20-page booklet with all steps, knotting techniques and material science for reference at home.
