StretchLearn Course
From choosing cord to combing the fringe — every knot taught through real, worked examples.
Course Overview
This course teaches macramé as a repeatable craft, not a one-off project. You will learn how cord fibre, ply, and millimetre size change a finished piece, master the square knot and half-hitch knot families, follow a full wall-hanging pattern, and finish professionally with combing, trimming, and colour knotting. By the end you can read a pattern, estimate cord, and produce sale-ready work.
Learning Outcomes
Select the correct cord type, ply, and diameter for any project and calculate how much you need
Tie the full square knot family including alternating, spiral, and switch knots cleanly and consistently
Tie the half-hitch family including diagonal, horizontal, and vertical clove hitches to form bars and shapes
Read and execute a complete wall-hanging pattern from mounting to bottom edge
Comb, trim, and shape fringe and finish ends so a piece looks professionally made
Plan and knot multi-colour designs using colour-blocking and ombré placement
Curriculum Preview
Preview the course structure, see how the modules build on one another, and understand the path this program is designed to take you through.
Understand the materials before you knot. This module covers how fibre, ply, and diameter behave, what tools you actually need, and how to estimate cord so you never run short mid-project.
The square knot and its variations are the backbone of macramé. Master the base knot, then learn the alternating, spiral, and switch variations that build nearly every flat panel.
Half hitches and clove hitches let you draw lines, bars, and shapes in cord. This module covers diagonal, horizontal, and vertical hitches and how to combine them into patterns.
Bring it all together into a finished, sale-ready piece. This module walks a full wall-hanging pattern, teaches professional fringing and finishing, and introduces multi-colour design.
Built for Application
This program is designed around progression: focused lessons, structured modules, applied resources, assessments, and a course rhythm that turns information into usable capability.
