Basic Micro Macrame knots | Combining polymer clay and micro macrame | “INKredible Macrame” tutorial
Comments Off on Basic Micro Macrame knots | Combining polymer clay and micro macrame | “INKredible Macrame” tutorial
I have always loved mix media art, especially when combined with polymer clay.
Macrame was popular in the 70s to create bags, wall décor, plant hangers and many more.
Micro Macrame is a more delicate and refined version of the 70s macramé using a smaller diameter of cord and beads.
Tie one cord to another and make a knot.
This is the basis of macramé.
We are all doing this every day in our daily routines.
No need for special tools or materials – cords, and beads!
Micro Macramé may appear complicated at first but actually, once you understood 3-4 basic macramé knots, you will see how these can create any pattern you can imagine.
Polymer clay and micro macrame are a perfect match!
Use your favourite beads in your preferred techniques and accessorise it with impressive micro macramé knotting!
Ready to learn start knotting?
Join me to a 50 minutes video demonstrating almost all basic micro macrame knots!
Here are some of the knots included in the video:
Square Knot (SK)
Mounting Knot / Larks Head Knot (LHK)
Double Half Hitch (DHH)
Vertical Double Half Hitch (VDHH)
Diagonal Double Half Hitch (DDHH)
Creating a closure to bracelets
and many more!
You are welcome to check out all 29 polymer-macrame video tutorials available in PolyPediaOnline Express site – Earrings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets, hair crowns and many more!
Who wants another free macrame pattern?
————————- “INKredible Macrame” class is all about using your polymer skills with an extra “twist” – cords and knots – creating an irresistible, original design! It only looks complicated but in fact it is NOT!
Once you mastered 3-4 basic knots, you will be able to create your own patterns, sell them and use knotting to create findings – bails, hangers, necklace straps, bracelets & cuffs, bezel settings, clasps & closures, rings and many more – all with knots!
Less commercial – more “artistical”!
Here is the “Pinky Style” FREE INKredible Macrame class – In this video I used the diagonal double half hitch knot along with larks head knot – Easy! 20 minutes and you have a new set of earrings!
Don’t miss the “Blue Galaxy” FREE INKredible Macrame class – In this video I used the double half hitch knot along with larks head knot.
I have been getting wonderful feedbacks from the new “INKredible Macrame” students –
“Hi Iris,
It’s the weekend over here in Australia and I have just watched your basics macrame video. Amazing! Very clear instructions and the pace was really suited to me, like REALLY suited! I feel like you have unlocked some otherwise inconceivable wisdom, making it very easy to digest and be inspired by. I love your designs and I love your methods and I love your approach!!

My romance with micro macramé began a year ago in Thailand after seeing beautiful macrame designs in local craft fairs.
Tie one cord to another and make a knot.
This is the basis of macramé knotting.
We are all doing this every day in our daily routines.
It took me less than a week to learn all knots variations, from start to finish, while integrating it with polymer clay beads.
Knowing polymer clay & macramé would be a perfect match, I’ve created 2 unique new classes, combining my 2 old-new passions – polymer clay and knotting – The “INKredible 2” & “INKredible Macrame”, were born.
While most micro macramé artists use standard gemstones in their designs, We, polymer clay artists, have the skills to shape, paint, pierce and design our own polymer clay beads to match our projects. This is a priceless gift!
Any surface, any technique, shapes, # of holes; each piece we make is definitely one of a kind!
My new INKredible class is divided into 2 sets:
(each can be purchased separately)
1. The “INKredible 2” Pack
2. The “INKredible Macramé” Pack.
All my latest designs & techniques using polymer clay & alcohol inks are introduced in these two packs.
The pattern sheets were used to create earrings (“INKredible 2” pack), as well as beads knotted into micro macrame (“INKredible Macrame” pack).
1. The “INKredible 2” Pack – Polymer clay & Alcohol inks
The “INKredible 2” Pack includes 20 NEW polymer clay patterns sheets designs introducing a variety & mix of materials to use along with alcohol inks.
These sheets can be applied in any bead, jewel, or accessory of your choice – flat or curved, small or large. I implemented my pattern sheets on earrings & beads.
Alcohol inks, chalk pastels, paints, stazon inks & stencils were used to create the surface designs.
This class is a new version of my known previous INKredible class, now offering a celebration of exciting, new techniques, encouraging you to use anything on your worktable, along with alcohol inks.
Combinations are infinite! If you already own the previous INKredible class, you will be delighted to discover new inspiring & creative ideas for your next projects.

Creativity is the best thing ever. For me, It is the cure to all things, healing to all stress and the perfect relaxation.
The past months were full of preparations for my Slovenia and Germany polymer classes. I was basically planned to teach almost all my techniques – INKredible (alcohol inks), Extrudinary (extruder), liquid clays, faux ceramic, Brocade Collection (purses) and even my new macrame classes! Yep, I more or less packed all my studio and placed it in my suitcases! ;) (Did I mentioned I took 50 kg of project samples, tools and materials with me? ohh thank god I had my DH to help me carry it all!)
Now that I’m finally un-packed and hoping to relax a bit after that intense week, (help! Passover holiday!) I am happy to share some photos & videos of my classes & expreience.
I was invited by Mihaela Vindis, the acting manager of ART shop in Maribor, Slovenia to join her yearly “2017 Creative Week” taking place in a beautiful shopping mall named “Europark Maribor”. All classes are offered in a very intensive-creative week, featuring more than 20 craft teachers (international & local) and more than 1000+ students coming from all over Europe to attend the workshops.
This is without a doubt a HUGE festival of art, offering classes on all crafts, hobby and DIY such as wood, painting, wire, fiber, paper, fabric, polymer (of course), recycling, jewellery making, metals and so much more!
My co-polymer colleague in the event was the amazing Maggie Maggio and both of us were offering workshops demonstrating the many faces of polymer clay.
What can I say, the event WAS AMAZING! Incredible talent and vibe of artists and crafters! Perfect venue and VERY creative Slovenian people! Words can not express the energy going on! Outstanding atmosphere!
Here is a short video giving a short view (too short to my opinion!) of that fabulous event –

My next stop was at Ariane Freislebens’ gallery “Galerie Freisleben” in Ubersee Germany, which is, to my amazement, a gallery completely dedicated to the polymer clay art.
The gallery, located next to the beautiful Chiemsee lake, include collective polymer clay art by international artists both for sale and for display. It is the most beautiful polymer museum I ever saw! (Ariane also offer lodging for her students and guests and the apartments are as pretty as the gallery itself – such fine design! :)
The classes were fun and joyous, relaxing and educational, Arianes’ clay ladies students were dedicated, funny yet hard working artists enjoying a wonderful weekend full of clay! The classroom was filled with buzzing workers up until 23:00 every day! haaaa!
Ariane’s schedule is packed with talented artists coming to teach so make sure to check it out to be updated on her future classes.
So thank you Ariane for an amazing stay in your piece of heaven, your kingdom is the perfect dream of any polymer clay artist!

I wish to thank all my hosts, friends, students for granting me the opportunity to enjoy full days of clay, happiness and getting a 1st class treatment of a movie star! ;) Thank you Staedtler for sponsoring our clay! I am deeply thankful for everything and hope I will meet you all again! <3
