Macramé earrings

1 Open the ear wire with pliers.

2 Cut an approx. 18 cm piece of macramé cord. Feed the cord through the loop and close the ear wire.

3 Cut eight macramé cords, each measuring approx. 12 cm for the leaf.

4 Place a doubled-over cord underneath the macramé cord attached to the ear wire.

5 Now place a doubled-over cord on top of the macramé cord as shown in the photo. Pull the ends to interlock the loops.

6 Repeat this procedure four times, using two macramé cords each time; i.e. a total of eight cords. Tighten.

7 Unravel the cords with a needle.
