An ode to macramé of the 70s, this jute hanger is knotted up with handmade, wood beads and takes us back to the days of bell bottoms and Fleetwood Mac. The best part of this time traveling project is that Jute rope has gotten a lot softer since the 70s! Have you tried ours yet? Order your cord here and get knotting along with this pattern, found in the Modern Macramé book.
