Step 7

Take 1 x 3.40mt string, place it over the strings, so the ends are equal on both sides of the skirt, and use it as a guide. You can fix it on a flat surface with masking tape.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great instructions for a lovely skirt So I haven't done macramé since Guide camp c.1999 but needed a skirt for a festival and a project so this seemed like a good idea. Bought the yarn in terracotta, figured out the knots, thought the instructions and photos were great and made a product that I'm very proud of.
