(K)not Your Nana’s Macramé
This craft workshop is as easy-breezy as they come
Think Thornbury’s macramé classes are a massive hit in Melbourne and this November, they’re bringing all the crafty fun to Sydney and Adelaide, courtesy of no less than their best teacher and co-founder!
Maggie May, who is also creator of The Middle Aisle, is no ordinary macramé tutor. A great supporter of Australian makers, she promotes the use of homegrown 100% cotton rope in all her classes.
She is not one to follow patterns and, like a true artist, lets the rope take the lead. Thus, every piece that Maggie makes is one-of-a-kind. True to form, her upcoming sessions in Sydney and Adelaide will also be pattern-free, wherein students will work on a large, improvised wall hanging.
Ready to create your own funky macramé masterpiece? It promises to be a fun treat for more advanced users comfy enough with the basics to wing it. But if you’re a first-time macramer who’s not afraid to take on the occasional creative stretch goal, this class is for you, too. Knotty fun all around!
