Tangled cords do not always mean trouble. In my hands, they have turned into jewelry, belts, wall hangings, and lampshades. Here I have gathered a few videos of my macramé creations — some show the making, while others introduce the finished pieces. Red Heart – A Macramé Jewelry Set ❤️ A little cord, a few…
In this video, I’ll show you step by step how to crochet the honeycomb stitch pattern. We’ll start with an even number of chain stitches. In the second row, we’ll work single crochet stitches, and in the third row, we’ll begin forming the honeycomb pattern using single crochet spike stitches. In the English subtitles, I…
For a year and a half, Mihkel and I have been building Tiina Butiik together. I come up with something. Mihkel listens. Then he explains why it won’t work exactly the way I imagined it. I argue back. He argues back. I decide I was right after all. A while later, I discover that Mihkel…
