Learn How To Make Micro-Macram Jewelry!Volume 3Intermediate / Advanced Designs Learn to create Micro-Macram beaded jewelry with these 7 fun projects. My previous book, "Learn How To Make Micro-Macrame Jewelry! Volume 1", explained how to create the necessary padded work surface which will allowed you to embark on your micro-macram journey. Then we continued with a straightforward bracelet, enabling you to familiarize yourself with the feel of the cord giving you time to practice tension as you tie the most commonly used knot in micro-macram. Each successive pattern introduced you to a new knot or two, culminating in a final project using several knots. If you are new to Micro-Macrame, I would suggest starting with my first book before you move onto these patterns. In the second book, I wanted to move forward into some more advanced techniques and knots. I added some new knots and increased the complexity of the designs which really dug into what I enjoy the most about the craft. That being the intricate details and delicate beading which sets apart this style from other forms of jewelry making. My approach is even different from many other knotting trends as I lean towards the Margarete Lace (or Margaretenspitze) technique. In this third book, I am excited to introduce to you a bracelet design made softer by adding ribbon to it. Pearls also help elevate the "Relev" composition to a higher level. This romantic feel is carried on with a long necklace that is subtly steampunk, incorporating beads and key charms. "All Keyed Up" was created for my college age daughters, who are thoroughly enjoying wearing this style. Changing things up is the "MoonDance Pendant". It is a unique design inspired by wire wrapped jewelry. Now you can have that look without learning wire wrapping techniques. For a more casual offering, I have created a "Wrap Bracelet" pattern which looks like four bracelets but is really one. I love the versatility of this one and have made several to wear out and about. Another enchanting bracelet pattern and two dazzling new earring patterns round out this book. An abundance of pictures and clear instructions are given to speed you on your way to successful jewelry creation!
