Macramé Lark’s Head and Square Knots
Thursday, March 27, 2025 10 am – 12 noon

Join us On Thursday March 27 at 10 to learn the basic Macramé Lark’s Head and Square Knots with Parul Parekh

Parul’s journey with Macramé began in 2017,which is an ancient craft that involves knotting cords, threads or yarn to create decorative textiles ranging from wall hangings, plant holders, floral arrangements and more.Over the years, she has explored and mastered a few vintage knots, showcasing the simplicity and the versatility of this art form through her intricate creations. The combination of being self taught, inspired by nature and working with intuition and spontaneity really makes her approach unique. The principles that she focuses on are patterns, proportions, repetitions, spacing, rhythm, movement and unity. Participating in juried shows, teaching, and engaging in community events like the open studios in the Bay Area has provided her the opportunity to make valuable connections with creative people.

In this hands-on workshop, students will learn the basic Macramé Lark’s Head and Square Knots. Parul will guide participants step-by-step to create a beautiful small wall hanging, incorporating these knots and a decorative bead to add a unique touch to their artwork.

All materials, including a 12” wooden dowel, colorful cords, and beads, will be provided, ensuring that every participant leaves with a personalized creation they can proudly display. $10 cash for the materials will be collected the day of the workshop.

Note: Space is limited to 16 attendees; after that we’ll have a waiting list.
