Every month Modern Macrame hosts a knot along; I participated in July’s Knot Along: the Circle Game.


For this project I used 11 inch and 3 inch hoops and 4 mm cotton string. Modern Macrame provides the pattern for free with purchase of all the supplies. Sweet!

One bundle of rope creates one 11 inch project and part of a 3 inch project. It was fun to mix the colors, too.


I purchased a few extra hoops in case I wanted to make more, and I totes did.


This was a simple project (easy to follow!) and it was great for practicing horizontal double half hitch knots. The cotton string fringes easily, too, with just a comb.



Check all the projects from this Knot Along on Instagram with #mmknotalong4. Some people turned them into plate chargers and table decor. I’m thinking these would look nice on a circular mirror. (Gift idea!)



I’ll definitely be crafting along more with Modern Macrame. I want to get my macrame game strong and work on more rope projects.
