Make it Mondays: Macrame Earrings

My daughter wanted some earrings and I had some old ones laying around. I found some old twine and used the ear wires and made these earrings in a flash.

Materials:

• Ear Wires
• Thin twine

Instructions for Each Earring

1. Cut 6 pieces of twine 3 times longer than you want the final earring to be
2. Fold each piece of twine in half and attach each piece of twine to the ear wire with a larkshead knot
3. Make 2 square knots using only 1 cord in the center of each square knot.
4. Do this with the remaining cords so you will have 3 columns of 2 square knots rows
5. Alternate and make 2 square knots with the center cords making two columns
6. Alternate again and make 2 square knots in each of the 3 columns
7. Alternate and make 2 square knot with the center cords making 2 columns
8. Use the center 4 cords make 2 square knots
9. Cut the cords off as long as desired
