In class, students will learn the lark's head, half square, square, and half square spiral knots. All of these are classic macrame knots that can be used in further projects, including wall hangings, purses, and even clothing. Students will leave with a finished piece!



Students are encouraged to bring a medium-sized pot to fit their plant hanger.



This workshop will be taught by Rhiannon Platt, textile artist and founder of Sameshit Studio.
