Hi everyone! Thank you for visiting this video 😊 For you guys who get difficulties with the half hitch knot, here is the tip: Do not pull both the cord on the left and the right side all together. 5:06 Pull only the cord that is on the left side (the working cord). The cord that is always on the right is only to direct the shape (horizontal, diagonal, round, or other shapes). And if this video is too fast for you, you can slow down by pressing the Settings button, select Playback Speed, and select 0.75 or 0.5 for a slower speed. Or you can take a look at this kzread.info/dash/bejne/iaqgtqWapcWXgpM.html for slower and clearer steps on each knot. I hope it will help you. Thank You and Good Luck!

I'm confused in measuring a cord please help me

I love that you put the cord lengths and directions in your video

What a great tutorial!! This project was perfect for all the scrap cords I've been keeping 🙂 Easy, peasy; clear and concise instructions. Thank you so much!!!

There are alot of negative comments, it amazes me how rude people can be behind their phones. I wanted to say thank you for the tutorial, I successfully made my first coaster with this video. As a beginner, I did struggle here and there but re-watching and reading comments helped. I only had 2mm 3ply cord and I love how it turned out so I gave it a try with 4mm 3ply cord and its a bigger version that I find so pretty. They are currently being used for my candles and Ive received compliments from family on them. You know what I'll be gifting for Christmas this year! Thanks a bunch! ❤

Hi, thank you so much. I'm so happy reading your comment. Have a good day ❤

Thank you! Such an easy tutorial to follow and my coasters have come out perfect!

Finally was able to make it after hours😅! Took me a few hours to understand how the hitch knot works, I did one successfully and kept forgetting how to do it again but finally completed t)3 coaster. The only issue was I used a 3mm cord and didn’t know where to add the new cords as we went. There was too much gap at few places and I wondered if we could add multiple new cords with lark knot.

I just got into Macrame and your video was very easy to follow Thank you so much

You are a great teacher I am excited to make these coasters. 🎉

Very nice! 😊

Thank you so much. It's very easy to follow.

Excellent perfect work

Thanks for the tutorial! It was very easy to follow! I used 3mm rope and I had too much cord left, so instead I made a dish coaster! :)

Can I do this without the fringe??

Can you put the strings in inches instead of Cm?

How long is cm in inches? My tape measure doesn’t have cm clearly marked so I can know how long that is 🙁 other than that I love the tutorial 😊

I luv this channel. By any chance would you know how much it cost to make one coaster as I am hoping to start my own macrame business.❤

Hi, if you don't see a gap in yours then you don't need to add new rope. Just add it when you feel the gap is too far from the next fringe. Good luck :)

I’m confused on when you add in the new rope. You had two lengths cut so do I slowly put those all in? Also you were adding a new one doing two stitches added another one and did six stitches then added another one and it skipped to the end so I’m not sure the pattern for adding the extra cords

You add an extra cord if there is a gap between your current cord and the next one, so you don't end up with a space in your finished work. There's no set rule about when as it will depend on the tension of the thread on your coaster.

Main cord needs to be way bigger....

@RikinikiDIY

Жыл бұрын

It depends on how big you want your coaster to be. In this video, the final size is about 14 cm (diameter) with tassels. Without tassels, it's about 11 cm (diameter). Also, the cord length requirements are not always exactly the same. It also depends on the thickness of the rope. Thicker cords take up more space. So you have to add a longer main cord. While the thinner cords, take up less space. So there is a possibility that your main cord will be left a lot or you can even make your coaster way bigger than my coaster's final result. I hope it helps :)

A tip for double half hitch knot: Do not pull both the cord on the left and the right side all together. 5:06 Pull only the cord that is on the left side (the working cord).

I speed it up only on the repetition steps. I keep a normal speed when I move to the next step. I hope it will help you in some way. Good luck 😊

People need to slow down, slowly show how it’s being tied together, this is too fast and not helpful

Am I the only one who couldn’t use this tutorial? I appreciate it for what it is but I can not use it at all. Waste of cord and time.

This is so hard and stressful horrible tutorial in my opinion
