Cord & Supplies I recommend making a knot at the end of your cord strands to prevent the ends from fraying while knotting. Cord Lengths Aren’t they so cute? They would be so cute for gifting, and I can just imagine a Christmas tree covered in them! 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.

Step 8: Attach a strand of 120 cm cord onto the far-right cord with a Reverse Lark's Head Plus Half hitch (RLHPHH). 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. Good news for crafters: you don’t need to splurge on home décor from the high street to enjoy the revival of this humble knotted craft. The explosion of DIY macramé kits has made the craft more accessible than ever and there are so many projects to choose from that you don’t need to settle for a classic plant holder, though it’s a great place to start! I used the Natural & Gold Shimmer single strand cotton cord from our Rainbow line for this tutorial. When working with cord spun with metallics, the metallics do come apart quite easily.

Step 11: Attach a strand of 80 cm cord onto each of the far-right and far-left cords with an RLHPHH.

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 1: Take a strand of cord at 160 cm long folded in half and make an Overhand knot on the loop end. Leave about 2" of space from the top of the loop. Pin or tape down the top loop part.You can find all instructions, measurements, and tips in the video description, which you can read when opening the tutorial on YouTube.

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. 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. If you’re not into beads, you could leave them out altogether. Considering the size of this project, we’ve incorporated quite a few different knots, so this is also a great way to learn and get comfortable with new types of knots. 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 5:With the middle four cords, make a Berry knot with two consecutive Square knots. With the first square knot, leave about 1cm space the square knot – this is for weaving the middle two anchor cords through.

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. 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.
