Notes to the Teacher

Present a sample video macramé and basketry product making.

lOMoARcPSD|7549803
What is It?
History of Macramé
Macramé is believed to have originated with 13th-century Arab weavers. These

artisans knotted the excess thread and yarn along the edges of hand-loomed fabrics into
decorative fringes on bath towels, shawls, and veils. The Spanish word macramé is derived
from the Arabic migramah, believed to mean “striped towel”, “ornamental fringe” or
“embroidered veil.”
In the 14th and 15 centuries, this craft was practiced in France and Italy. The
patterned knotted fabrics created out of macramé craft were used in churches for vestments
and altar cloth in early days. This craft then became popular among the British during the
19th century. Legend says that the North American Sailors spent long hours aboard ships
practicing macramé square knots and hitch knots. These sailors made fringes for wheels
and bell covers, netting and screens.
Though the craze for macramé faded, it regained popularity during the 1970s as a
means to make wall hangings, articles of clothing, bedspreads, small jean shorts,
tablecloths, draperies, plant hangers and other furnishings. By the early 1980s macramé had
again begun to fall out of fashion as a decoration trend. However macramé has become
popular again. This time, in the form of jewelry, such as necklaces, anklets and bracelets.
Using mainly square knots this jewelry often features handmade glass beads and natural
elements such as gemstones, bone or shell.
Materials used in macramé include cords made of cotton twine, linen, hemp, jute, leather or
yarn. Jewelry is often made with a combination of knots and using various beads (glass,
stone or wood), pendants or shells. Sometimes focal points are used for necklaces such as
rings or gemstones, either wire-wrapped to allow for securing or captured in a net-like array
of intertwining overhand knots.
History of Basketry
Basket weaving dates back a very long time. In fact it pre-dates some forms of
pottery and woven cloth. Evidence for this has been discovered in the form of stone carvings
from around 20,000 years BC. The materials used would have depended on people’s
surroundings and varied considerably, from willow to roots, brambles, vines, oak, ash, hazel,
bamboo, leaves, straw, rush and bark. Some things were woven, others were coiled.
Baskets were woven and lined with clay to create waterproof bowls. Houses were
built with basket work (wattle) and daubed with mud, right up until the 1700s.
Basketry was a hugely popular form of packaging – it was used for transporting fish,
dairy products, brick, stone, coal, and manure and also for woven animal muzzles, bird
traps, eel traps, lobster pots, and coracles. Each area within a country usually had its own
styles of baskets and containers, which could be very different.

lOMoARcPSD|7549803
The introduction of plastic has caused a huge decline in the basket industry, for both
growers and weavers. The problem with plastic is that it’s cheap and considered disposable
despite not being bio-degradable, so it creates huge environmental problems for wildlife and
the planet. Years ago people would reuse their baskets until they fell apart, then, compost
them.
In the Philippines, raw materials for basket weaving are abundant. The most
common are bamboo, rattan, and abaca. Baskets coming from the lowland are mostly made
of bamboo and abacca, while in mountainous places, the main raw materials used is chiefly
of rattan. The four type of basket found in the Philippines are snare and traps, holding
basket, carrying basket, and sieves and strainers. Today, the basket weaving industry in the
country has gone a long way, as it remains to be a major basket making producer abroad.
Kinds of Macramé Products

Macramé Necklaces come in various designs
and styles. The famous style is macramé Y-
shaped necklaces. By varying the knots, the
position and the kind of gemstones used,
several one-of-a-kind designer necklaces are
produced. Macramé chokers that come with
semi-precious stones and freshwater pearls are
created.

Macramé Textiles is a form of textile making

using knots instead of weaving or knitting. It is
similar to the crochet or Chinese knotting, which
is used to create intricate textiles. A variety of
macramé called cavandoli macramé is used to
form geometric patterns especially in weaving.

Kinds of Basketry Products

Coiled Basketry is a technique

North America. Coil baskets of different
regions have various styles of construction
depending upon the materials used in
the coil, and the type of stitch used to fasten
or interlock the coils together.

Plaiting Basketry is a technique involves

weaving wide materials, similar in shape to
ribbons although at its most elaborate it can
be closer to textile weaving than any
other basketry technique. In this craft both
the stakes as well as the weaving materials
are identical, which are then woven together
at right angles.

Twining Basketry is done by using

materials from roots and tree bark. This is a
weaving technique where two or more
flexible weaving elements ("weavers") cross
each other as they weave through the stiffer
radial spokes.

Wicker and Splint Basketry is sometimes

called 'stake or strand' basketry. Often this
type of basketry has different materials for
the stakes and weavers.garden-chair. The
'splints' are almost always thicker than the
weaves and are made from tree wood such
as willow, ash, reed, cane, oak, and

What is It
BASIC MACRAMÉ KNOTS

1. Square knot. Square Knot are strong and one of the most common knots used in
macramé. The square knot is done in two parts.
2. Spiral knot. The spiral knot creates a beautiful helix or DNA spiral. It is especially well
suited to use when creating plant hangers. The spiral knot is actually a square knot, but tied
repeatedly. The knot becomes offset, forming a spiral that twists down.
3. Half hitch. The half hitch is the most versatile knot used in macramé. The possibilities are
endless with this knot.
A. Variations of Half Hitch Knot
1. Half hitch knot- is great to create wavy
patterns in a macramé wall hanging. It is the
simplest knot in macramé. The working cord
passes in front of and then loops around the
filler cord. Pass it through the loop created
by the working cord.
2. Double half hitch knot- is the knot that
can elevate your work to the next level. It is
used to create different structures and
shapes in macramé.
Source: www.feltmagnet.com
4. LARK'S HEAD KNOT. Sometimes referred to as
a Cow Hitch Knot, it is one of the most basic knots
in macramé. In fact, almost every beautiful piece
of finished macramé you see starts with this
knot. The Lark’s head knot is used to attach your
cording to your ring, dowel or handle when starting
Source: www.pinterest.com
a macramé project.
Spiral Knot
5. CAPUCHIN / BARREL KNOT. The Capuchin
Knot often is tied on the ends of tassels. It makes Long Barrel Knot
them very neat and trim.
Source: www.pinterest.com
6. LONG BARREL KNOT. Similar to the capuchin
knot, it is just longer (around 2"). This is great for
finishing ends of cords in such items as wall- Capuchin/Barrel Knot
hangings, plant hangers etc.
7. WIND KNOT. This knot is used for gathering
many threads together, mostly at the end of work,
and creating a tassel.
8. THE CONNECTING KNOT. This knot is useful Source: www.pinterest.com
for connecting two or more threads. It also can be
used in macramé fishnet.

BASKETRY WEAVING TECHNIQUES AND PATTERNS
Basket weaving depicts traditions of the ethnic groups, coupled with their artistic
creativity and their architectural applications. Studying the basic structural morphology of
the different baskets can be associated mainly on the structural significance attributed by the
raw materials used, heritage significance and the function of the basket.
Basketry involves specific patterns of growth which are specific to raw materials
employed. Thus different basket weaving techniques and forms evolved are related to
inherent characteristics of raw materials.
Patterns generated in basket weaving sometimes are misunderstood for decoration,
rather considering it as mechanism of articulation adapted in the sense of engineering
involved to generate form. This patterning involves computation knowledge; which man has
evolved since the weaving has been practiced.
Types of Weaving Techniques
1. PLAITING
It is a simple weave consisting of one strand going above and
under the other strand. Weaving can be closed or open depending on
the purpose of the basket to be done.
Source: www.pdfs.semanticscholar.org
A. Three types of Plaiting
a. Plain Weave
Plain and diagonal weave consists of checker work and twill weave work. In checker
work, warp and weft are of uniform size and pliability, and each element passes over one
and under one of the other, thus forming square or rectangular checks. Closed checker work
gives compactness and strength to the baskets. Twill wave consists of two or more weft
strands pass over two or more warp elements, but not the same in adjoining rows.
b. Diagonal Weave
Diagonal weave is a variant of plain wave, where propagation of warp and weft
elements are diagonal to normal direction. When square base is made of diagonal elements,
side wall tends to move diagonally, making warp and weft indistinguishable.
c. Cross Warp or Hexagonal Weave
Cross warp weaving is done using inclined warp elements interlinked by horizontal
wefts passing over and under the inclined warps. These horizontal wefts can be separated
co-axial rings or continuous weft spiraling forming rhombic structure.
Variations could be achieved in hexagonal weaving by:
 Changing ratio between elements and spaces
between them
 Changing the inclination of warp elements
 Introducing additional elements parallel to basic
elements
2. COILING
In coil basketry the foundation is laid by coiling cane round
and the central core at the base and then building spirally,
gradually widening until the desired height and form are attained.
Each coil is fixed to another by sieving strips.
Coiling begins in the center of the bottom of the basket and
grows outwards and upwards in a spiral. It is thought that early
ceramic pots were made from clay coils that used coiled baskets Source:
as formers. There are two elements, the core and the wrapping or stitching. The core can
www.pdfs.semanticscholar.org
be a single rod, or two or three together or be a bundled core of many smaller elements such
29

lOMoARcPSD|7549803
as pine needles or grasses. Holding these together is the stitching. This is done using an awl
or needle in a softer material which can be corded fiber or a narrow flat pliable material such
as split cane.
3. TWINING
Twining is the twisting of two or more linear
elements to warp elements. When passing from warp to
warp these elements are twisted in half turns on each
other so as to form a two-ply or three-ply twine of braid. It
produces a dense weave, with ribbed and distinctive
diagonal twist to wefts. In closed twining baskets, warps
usually get concealed by wefts.
A. Categories
1. Two strand twining- can be further divided into four variations namely, (1) plain
twining, (2) twill weave twining, (3) lattice twining, (4) wrapped twining and (5)
cross warp twining
2. Three strand twining- consists of plain twining which can be done open or closed
depending on the purpose of the basket.
4. WICKERWORK
Wicker work are the oldest weaving technique
practiced from earlier times for making space divider in
interior spaces as well as in fences. In wickerwork the
warp is rigid; the smaller and more flexible weft passes
under one and over one of the former.
5. BRAIDING
Braiding is identified by the growth of surface along only one axis. Braiding could be
flat or tubular. These are made from multiple elements which interlace in two directions each
forming a mutually opposite helix. Braiding is mostly done on rim of the baskets as a
finishing touch. There are many variations of braiding possible
depending on the number of strands used in it. There is one variation
called Madeira border in which the stakes which are upright from the
base in wicker work, are bent and again braided into to base to form
decorated border around the rim. Circular or oval rims are formed in
this weaving.
6. NET/KNOT/LOOP
These techniques, often thought of as more textile
than basketry, generally result in soft flexible structures.
When stronger materials than the usual soft string/twine are
employed the possibility of producing rather more intriguing
forms opens up. They offer opportunities for exploring
structural combinations and experimenting with properties
that allow them to be squashed, stretched and manipulated
into interesting forms. Source: www.pdfs.semanticscholar.org

What is It
Procedures in Macramé and Basketry products.
Methods in macramé (square knot)
The Square knot (SK) is the most important decorative knot used in Macrame. There
are many variations and patterns that can be made using this knot alone, or in combination
with other types of Macrame knots. Beginners should practice all the variations listed in the
Learn Macrame section This knot can be used to make sennits, which means to tie one right
after the next in a chain. See Square Knot (www. Free-macrame-patterns.com/square-knot-
sennits.html) for examples. You can also tie them in horizontal rows with straight or diagonal
edges. See the pages above for more details.
This image shows the "head" of the knot, which can face
either right or left.
The working cord you move first will determine the
direction.
The instructions for both are shown below.
To practice Square Knots, you need two folded cords secured to a project board, so you
have four to work with. Mentally number them 1 - 4.
The working cords are 1 and 4. The fillers are cords 2 - 3.
Step 1: Move working cord 1 over filler cords 2 and 3,

heading right.
Pass it under the working cord 4.
Since the left working cord is moved first, the head of this
knot will face left.
Step 2: Move working cord 4 to the left, passing
it under the two filler cords and over working cord 1.
Pull on both working cords to tighten the knot, while

holding the filler cords steady.
Source: www.free-macrame-patterns.com.com/vertical-half
Designer's Tip: The first half of a Square Knot, which you just tied, is sometimes called
a Half Knot, especially in vintage patterns.
It's used when making the Spiral Stitch, which is another basic Macrame knot you should
practice.
39

lOMoARcPSD|7549803
Step 3: The two working cord have switched places.
Move working cord 1 to the left, passing it over the fillers

and under working cord 4.
Step 4: Move working cord 4 to the right,

passing under the fillers and over cord 1.
Step 5: Tighten the left SK by pulling on the working

cords, while holding the fillers steady.
The tying process for the Right Square Knot is the exact opposite of the Left SK described
above. It's sometimes called a Reverse Square Knot, especially in vintage patterns
Step 1: Move working cord 4 to the left,

passing over filler cords 2 - 3, and under working cord 1.
The head of the SK will face right, because the first

working cord moved is on the right.
Step 2: Move working cord 1 to the right, passing

it under the fillers, and over working cord 4.
Pull both ends to tighten the first half of the knot, while
holding the fillers steady.
Step 3: The two working cords have switched places.
Move working cord 4 to the right, over the fillers

Step 4: Move working cord 1 to the left, passing

it under the fillers and over cord 4.
Step 5: Hold the fillers steady while pulling both working

cords, to tighten the right SK.

IV. ASSIMILATION
What I Have Learned
1. Macramé is a form of textile produced using knotting (rather than weaving or knitting)
techniques. Basket weaving is the process of weaving or sewing pliable materials
into three-dimensional artifacts, such as baskets, mats, mesh bags or even furniture.
Craftspeople and artists specialized in making baskets may be known as basket
makers and basket weavers. Just remember that in making macramé is knotting
while basketry is through weaving.
2. Different Macramé Methods
 A square knot is one of the most widely used macrame knots and it can be
created as left facing or right facing.A half knot is simply half of a square knot. It
can be right facing or left facing, depending on which side you start on.Square
knots need to have at least 4 cords (2 working cords and 2 filler cords) but can
have more. The first and last cords are the working cords. We'll call them
working cord 1 and 4. The middle cords are filler cords and we'll number those
2 and 3. These cords will switch places but will still keep their original
numbering.
 The Clove Hitch is a common Macrame knot, which has several variations
that can be used in Macrame projects. It provides a good strong hold, which
is why it's so popular. The Double Half Hitch is often considered the same
knot, especially in vintage Macrame books. But the focus here is on the
BACK of the knot, where the crossed elements are visible.
 Vertical Half Hitch (VHH) is a unique variation of the Half Hitch. Since two
knots are tied, it's often called the Vertical Double Half Hitch, especially in
older Macrame books.What makes it unique is that the two Half Hitches are
arranged vertically, with the second Half Hitch resting in front of the first
(below in images). In a regular DHH, the loops are side-by-side

What’s In
What is macramé and basketry? Macramé is a form of textile produced using

knotting (rather than weaving or knitting) techniques. Basket weaving is the process of
weaving or sewing pliable materials into three-dimensional artifacts, such as baskets, mats,
mesh bags or even furniture. Craftspeople and artists specialized in making baskets may be
known as basket makers and basket weavers. Just remember that in making macramé is
knotting while basketry is through weaving.
Identify whether the following procedures or methods is done through knotting or weaving.
Write down your answer in a separate sheet of paper.

What is It
Different Methods and Procedures in Basket Weaving.

Twining Method
Step 1 and 2 shows how folded weft passes in front of and

behind bundless of warps, with a twist between them
Step 3. Weft returns at the end of a twined section in

countered twining technique.
Step 4 and 5. Countered twining creating vertical stripes is

made by tying black and white (or your preferred colors )
yarns together

Wicker method
Select your two thinnest longest rods to use as weavers.
You’ll Start with their tip ends (the thinner ends). Trim a
couple of inches off if they are damaged or very wispy.
Insert the tips into the split of the slath as shown.
Then, position the weavers so that the next arm of the

slath is between them, as shown.Now, bring the weaver
from the back up and over the next arm, and the top
weaver down behind.
49

lOMoARcPSD|7549803
Do the same again around the next arm, bringing the

weaver from the back up and over, and the top weaver
down behind...Rotate the slath as you go (anticlockwise)
so that the handling is the same with each stroke. This
will help a lot.
keep the weavers pulled in tightly as you go.Note that

when the weaver from the back comes up, it should come
under the weaver resting at the top, and then the top
weaver goes down over it.You will need to continue in
this way until you have completed two rounds.
Position the weavers as if you are about to do a third

round as shown.
Continue with the same pairing weave, except now you’ll

need to weave between each individual slath stick. Think
of each stick as a separate ‘arm’ like before. Bend each
set of three sticks open as you come to them so they’ll
become spaced like spokes of a wheel. Be firm.
Pull the weave in as close as possible as you go.

Continue weaving around and around... Splice in new
weavers as shown, simply adding a new weaver
alongside the old one and continuing. Butt ends are
replaced with butt ends and tips with tips. After replacing
one, weave ahead at least a few moves before replacing
the other. The protruding stubs should be trimmed after
completing the base. Note, you can weave quite far
towards the tip end (the thinner end) of a weaver, leaving
only about 4" (10cm) before replacing it.

Coiling Method
Now fold the wrapped bunch over to form
Make the Base a ‘U’ shape. Wrap the dark pink raffia around
both ends of the ‘U’ a few times to secure
them together. The centimetre of the natural
raffia will be sticking out.Thread the needle
with the loose end of the dark pink raffia.
Wind the bunch of raffia around the ‘U’, so

the raffia becomes a circle, and starts to form
a spiral. As you wind the raffia, twist the
bunch to create a more solid shape.The
natural raffia is called the base raffia.Holding
the spiral in place with one hand, pass the
threaded needle up through the central hole in
the spiral. Pass the needle over the top of
base raffia and back up through the central
hole. Continue stitching like this until you’ve
gone all the way around the second round of
the spiral (the first round was created with the
‘U’). You will have joined the first two rounds
together.
When you get to the beginning of the third

round, your stitches will pass through the
space between the first and second rounds,
and join rounds two and three
together.Continue stitching, coiling and
twisting the base raffia as you go. The stitches
will always go over the current and previous
rounds of base raffia.
Raffia pieces are always different lengths,

so you can replace the base raffia pieces
individually when required. Just overlap the
ends of the old and new pieces by about
5cm, and twist them into the base raffia
bunch.

Build up the sides

When you run out of the dark pink raffia
lay the last 5cm of the finished dark pink
strand along the base raffia. Take a new
length of dark pink raffia and align the end
of it with the end of the old piece. The new
piece of raffia will run along the base raffia
towards the spiral and you can
recommence stitching. When you’re happy
with the size of the base, you can start to
coil up the sides of the vase.
To do this, just bring the base raffia up

so that instead of coiling it next to the
previous round it will sit on top of it. The
stitches will continue as before: joining the
new round with the previous one, but they
will be building vertical walls instead of a
flat base.

IV. ASSIMILATION
What I Have Learned
1. Macramé is a form of textile produced using knotting (rather than weaving or knitting)
techniques. Basket weaving is the process of weaving or sewing pliable materials into three-
dimensional artifacts, such as baskets, mats, mesh bags or even furniture. Craftspeople and
artists specialized in making baskets may be known as basket makers and basket weavers.
Just remember that in making macramé is knotting while basketry is through weaving.
2. Different Basketry Technique
 Coiling is not weaving. It is a procedure combining the wrapping of a core

material and a sewing process. Coiled baskets with distinctive designs are
synonymous with the Southwestern American Indian tribes. These skilled
practitioners have raised basket coiling to a classic art form. Coiling is a
flexible medium that presents exciting art using both familiar and exotic
materials. The following criteria determine what makes a well planned, coiled
basket.
 Difficulty or ease in starting depends upon the core material used.

 Controlling the shape of the basket.
 Properly using the sewing stitches.
 An inconspicuous tapered rim is necessary for satisfactorily ending the
basket.
A coiled basket begins with a material that is wrapped around (the core) and
then sewn together in an orderly manner. The basket needs a base, a shape
and a rim. Now, learn how to create a coiled basket.
 Twining is one of the major basketry construction methods. It is a weave done
with two elements woven simultaneously around the spokes. The weaving
instances for a full turn. You should be careful to maintain the orientation of
the crossing weavers so that the twist remains consistent
 Plaited Baskets and mats are made with flexible material that are wide and
ribbon-like such as rushes, palms, grasses and split rattans and bamboos.
Plaited technique involves weaving wide materials, similar in shape to ribbons
although at its most elaborate it can be closer to textile weaving than any
other basketry technique
 Wicker work (or stake-and-strand basketry) is closely related to twining. It uses a
single weft element and a series of passive warp elements that are typically much
larger and stiffer than the weft element
