    Macrame is a form of textile art that involves creating patterns and designs by knotting cords or ropes. It originated as a weaving technique, but evolved into a distinct craft in the 1970s. Some common macrame projects include wall hangings, plant holders, jewelry, and other decorative items. The art form involves tying various types of knots, such as square knots, half hitches, and monkey fists, to create intricate woven patterns and textures. Macrame is often done with natural fibers like cotton, hemp, jute, or leather cords. It experienced a surge in popularity as a home decor and fashion trend in the 1970s, and has seen a resurgence in recent years as a popular DIY and crafting hobby.
