Macrame Cord & Supplies

Macrame Supplies for Beginners

Are you new to macrame art? Don’t worry, it's actually super easy to learn. But first, you have to gather all the macrame tools and supplies you need before getting started. Having all the essentials prepared will make it easier for you to begin your project and get a better understanding of how macrame is done.

The good thing about getting into macrame is that you won't really need a lot to get started. Aside from your choice of macrame rope, cord, or string, you will only need a measuring tape and a pair of scissors to begin with your first project.

What are the Differences between Macrame String, Rope, or Cord?

These terms are often used interchangeably by a lot of macrame enthusiasts, but it's always good to know what actually makes them different from one another.

• Macrame string features a soft texture that makes it comfortable on the hands and easy to cut. This is why it is often the choice for beginners at macrame.
• Macrame rope is stronger and firmer than macrame string. It also has more girth, which means it can be a bit stiffer too.
• Macrame cord is the most commonly interchanged term with string, but it’s actually thicker, with six or more strings braided together. It’s highly durable.
