Zedenius, FannyFanny Zedenius is the creative mind behind the Instagram profile Createaholic (14.4K followers), which she started in late 2014 in order to share images of her crafts, home and plants. Due to popular demand Fanny opened up a web shop selling her makes and started hosting macramé workshops - all on top of her day job at the UN Women's National Committee of Sweden. Inspired by the seemingly never-ending new ways to combine different knots, and welcoming the reflective calm that knotting brought to her world, Fanny has played an instrumental role in the modern macramé renaissance.

Fanny Zedenius gives this addictive craft a refreshing twist as she takes you through all the essentials, from everything you need to know to get started through to inspiration on how best to display your makes. The 21 projects include impressive wall hangings, a beautiful table runner, a stunning curtain, whimsical dream catchers and pretty plant hangers.

Beginning with the basics, the knot glossary in Macramé covers 30 of the most popular knots plus provides tips on how to create the 7 different patterns through various knot combinations. The book then takes the readers through dip-dyeing, fraying, where to buy materials and how to tackle larger projects, plus 21 projects to make for yourself. Each knot and project includes charts and step illustrations alongside beautiful, inspirational photography that clearly shows each design.

Once you have mastered the basic macramé knots, you can begin to create the designs of your dreams... the possibilities are endless.
