Sometimes you just want a new handbag. Sometimes you also know a little bit about macrame. Sometimes you realize you can make your own handbag using macrame and suddenly you’re strolling around looking real cute!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the resurgence of macrame in recent years, there is an exciting range of dyed, cotton rope to be had. I found this beautiful mustard color and a coordinating set of stained wooden handles and realized I could use the most basic macrame knots to make a cute accessory that would hold the basics: my wallet, notebook (with pen attached inside the spiral binding b\/c, duh), and phone. The best part is, this highly textured handbag can follow you from summer to fall in this beautiful golden tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"aSupplies:
<\/strong>–one pair of wooden round shaped handles<\/a>
–mustard 3mm cotton cord<\/a>
-scissors
-yardstick or measuring tape<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"photoStep One:<\/strong> Cut thirty-two lengths of cotton cord that measure 11′ each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Two:<\/strong> Tie sixteen strands to each handle using a lark’s head knot. To achieve a lark’s head knot, fold your strand in half and fold the center from the outer rounded part of one handle to the back of the handle. Then pull the two loose ends through the folded center as shown. This creates a lark’s knot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Three:<\/strong> Repeat until you have tied sixteen strands per handle. Pay special attention that all of your knots are on the same side of your handle or else it will disrupt the visual pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Four:<\/strong> Start your first row of square knots by using the first four strands of rope on the left side of one handle. You can move the rest of the strands off to the side to make this easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Five:<\/strong> Fold the first strand over the second and third strand and under the fourth strand to create a ‘4’ shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Six:<\/strong> Then fold the fourth strand under the second and third strands and up and over the bend in the first strand as shown. It almost looks like an upside down heart. Pull the outer two strands until they are snug. This is a half-knot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"photoStep Seven:<\/strong> Then you\u2019ll create another similar half knot but reverse the overlap order of the outer ropes. The outer rope on the right side will go over the center two ropes but under the outer rope on the left side. Then the outer rope on the left side will go behind the center two ropes and come out over the bend in the outer right rope. Check out steps two through four in this macrame stocking tutorial<\/a> for further visual breakdown. This is a square knot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Eight:<\/strong> Use the next four strands to create another square knot and keep adding square knots all the way across.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Nine:<\/strong> We’re going to create alternating square knots for the second row of knots. Use the first eight strands on the left side. Skip the first two strands on the left side and the last two strands on the right side so that you’re only working with the four strands in the middle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Ten:<\/strong> Use those four strands to create a square knot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Eleven:<\/strong> Use the two leftover strands on the right side and next two strands for your next square knot as shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Twelve:<\/strong> This is how it should look. Continue this second row of knots. Follow up with a third row of square knots, a fourth row of alternating knots, a fifth row of square knots, and a sixth row of alternating knots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note<\/em>: In my pattern, I only tied five rows of knots but later realized a sixth row would create a smoother pattern before joining the two sides together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"photoStep Thirteen:<\/strong> Repeat steps four through twelve on your second handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Fourteen:<\/strong> Place the two handles next to each other. My handles have a right side and a wrong side, so be sure your handles are both facing right side up. Create an alternating square knot between two strands from one side and two strands from the other side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Fifteen:<\/strong> Continue tying square knots from the center to each edge to finish out that row, except for the last two or four strands on each end. Once you get to the tenth row, start leaving some space between rows. This will give your bag more roominess and stretch in the bottom half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Sixteen:<\/strong> Once you’ve finished fifteen rows, fold your bag in half so that the wrong sides of the handles are facing each other. Attach the open sides of the bag by tying up the rest of the knots to finish off the rows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Seventeen:<\/strong> You can see how the knots are closer together at the top and further from each other at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"photoStep Eighteen:<\/strong> Now, this bag can be made with fringe on the bottom or tucked inside. If you want it tucked inside, like mine, this is the point where you turn your bag inside out with the right sides of the handles facing each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Nineteen:<\/strong> We’re going to tie the knots from the front side of the bag at the bottom, to the back side of the bag at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Twenty:<\/strong> Take individual strands from one knot on the front side and an individual strand from a nearby knot on the back side and knot together once so that they are snug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Twenty-One:<\/strong> Then tie a double knot. Follow along until all strands have been double-knotted to a strand on the opposite side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Twenty-Two:<\/strong> Trim your strands so that they are even.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step Twenty-Three:<\/strong> Brush your strands out so that they are full if you are going to keep them on the outside of your bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"yellowOr trim them down a bit further and turn your bag right side out as shown. I trimmed mine down even further after this photo once I decided I liked mine better without fringe after all. Ha! Decisions, decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"aWorried about the random stash of lipsticks and pens that are usually pooling at the bottom of your most used bags? Toss in a cute zipper bag to carry smaller items and you’re golden! Enjoy. – Rachel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
