I am happy for you to come by and check out my supplies in person, in other words visit me at home! Just send me a message and we can try to find a good time that suits us both. Once here, I accept payment via Swish, not cash. If you don't have Swish we will make a payment through the website. Unfortunately I can't take card payments anymore.

Yes, I ship to customers all over the globe. Shipping rates vary depending on your region and is calculated at checkout based on destination and the weight of your order.

I try to find the cheapest shipping options available and only charge for shipping what I pay myself (or less), but the fact is that shipping from Sweden to other countries can be a bit expensive. You are always welcome to contact me if you are interested in a large order and would like to see if there's a possibility for cheaper shipping than what is calculated at checkout.

Check my Shipping page for all information.

I do my best to ship your order as quick as possible! 9 times out of 10 I ship your order the next day, but since this is a small business run solely by me, life can sometimes come in between. Furthermore, the time it takes to receive your package depends on where you live and the available shipping company.

Domestic (Swedish) orders usually arrive 1-2 business days after they are shipped.

Please note that for small orders you may have the option to choose a cheap non-traceable shipping alternative, in which case I use the regular post. For all other orders you will receive a tracking number.

Shipping rates can vary depending on your region and are calculated at checkout.

Here are the full details of my Shipping Policy.

Cord: When I use the word 'cord' I use it as a generic term referring to any type of rope or string. Usually I use the words 'string' and 'rope' when referring to the specific material you have before it is cut in smaller lengths for your project. The cords are therefor the separate lengths of string/rope you cut.

Rope: I use the word 'rope' to refer to cord that is either multiple-ply twist or braided.

String: I use the word 'string' to refer to cord which is made of multiple fibers that are twisted together - a single twist as opposed to 3-ply twist, for example.

Ropes are sturdier and stronger than string, while string is softer and easier to fray.

This is a common question with no easy or even right answer. What cord you should choose depends on a number of factors. First of all, think of cord size. Are you aiming for intricacy or larger scale pieces? For intricacy, I would personally not use cords thicker than 3mm. For larger scale pieces you can use really thick ropes. The thicker the rope, the quicker you will be able to make large and chunky pieces. My favourites are 4-8mm for any piece larger than ≈100x100cm. But this is really a preference thing!

When it comes to choosing between natural fibers (cotton, hemp, jute) or synthetic fibers it is all about your own personal style. The only time it is important to carefully consider is when you are making items that will be subjected to humidity or water - then you should naturally choose cords that aren't sensitive to this. Furthermore, macramé requires using your hands, so choosing a type of cord that will be as kind to your skin as possible is always an added plus. For that reason I personally love the single twisted cotton string!

When it comes to the type of cord you should choose (single twist/multiple-ply rope/braided), it is once again a preference thing. I usually recommend 3-ply rope or braided rope to anyone who is a complete beginner since they are sturdier and the fibres in these types of ropes holds together which can make it easier when you tie your knots. The single twist string also holds together well, but there's no denying it frays up easier. This is however a very good thing for anyone wanting a piece that is fluffy and with soft tassels or cord ends.

One last important thing is for anyone planning on making something that will be used by and/or for a child/baby. Remember that ropes and string made for crafting usually don't have any of the certifications that (for example) clothes and children's toys have. If you are making a child swing, a teether or a pacifier holder for example, make sure you are using materials that are friendly towards children's sensitive skin.

Another very common question! This naturally depends on the size and design of your project, but a good rule of thumb if you're a beginner is that you need more than you think!

For a plant hanger you can use anywhere between 6-100 meters depending on how you make it, but a "classic" macramé plant hanger is often made with about 30-40 meters for example.

With wall hangings it's impossible to say an exact number since the design (types of knots, pattern, thickness of cord) and the size of the finished piece will affect how much you need. If you are just going to create something without knowing beforehand what design you will make and you will just improvise as you go, I would aim for somewhere between 3-5 times the length of the finished piece you want. In other words, if you would want to make a 1 meter tall wall hanging I would start with cords that are between 3-5 meter long. You would therefore cut each cord  6-10 meters since you fold your cord in half when you attach it to a dowel/branch or anchor cord.

If you would still like some form of hint as to how many meters you usually use for macramé wall hangings I personally use approximately these amounts:

Small wall hangings: 50-80 meters
Medium wall hangings: 80-200 meters
Large wall hangings: 200-600 meters
Large wall hangings with lots of intricacy: 600->1000 meters

Yes! You can order samples here. I only charge you for the cost of posting the samples. Please note that I need you to specify which types you would like me to include. This can be done in the message box when you click on your shopping cart. Specify which colours, rope and/or string, plus thickness you want.

My rope and string comes from two different manufacturers, one in Sweden and one in Turkey. The coloured 3-ply rope and all the coloured single twist string is made in Turkey, while all the organic rope and string is made in Sweden.

I try to help out as much as I have time for! Before contacting me, check to see if it is a common question since I have gathered answers to common questions underneath each book's page. Go to the book in question through this page.

My first book is great for beginners, if I may say so myself! ;) I have heard back from many people who have told me that this book got them started on their personal macramé journey. However, there is still lots of room for developing of skills, so even if you have some of the basics down I am sure you will find that this book is still great for gaining some more in-depth knowledge and inspiration! 

My second book is also very useful for beginners, but it does have more advanced projects that may be a little intimidating if you are a complete beginner. Still, it includes all instructions for knots and has lots of other very useful tips and instructions that you will have great use of!

My third book has a range of beginner friendly projects and a little more challenging projects.

I teach beginners and intermediate knotters how to tie plant hangers and wall hangings. However, currently I have no good place to host the workshops so until I find a good spot my workshops are paused.

All my workshops are booked through Skillbreak.com. You can check out the dates I have for plant hangers here, and for the wall hangings here.
