Macrame Information - A Vendor Neutral Portal 2009
Macrame is knot tying utilizing a variety of macrame cords both natural (e.g., cotton, wool, hemp, and linen cords) and synthetic (e.g., nylon, rayon and polypropylene cords). The origins of macrame go back to ancient times. Any functional device made of a knotted cord is considered part of the art of macrame.
