Auxiliary knots
The Vertical Lark's Head knot
The Vertical Lark's Head knot is the same as the Lark's Head knot, but is linked differently. Because of this way of knitting, many separate these two knots.
This knot can be used to make very pretty cords and bars during the making of bracelets or belts...
Half-bond
Half-bond is done with two or more threads. It can be made from left to right, or from right to left. It’s done in the same way as the half of the ribbed knot, or the half of lark’s head. By alternating the binds, you can get pretty strands and braids in the form of chains.
Examples of strands with half-binds with two or more threads.
The book „Macramé – the art of tying knots“ is done as a manual for everyone interested in Macramé. It contains over 120 drawings and 150 photographs in color. For the beginners, everything that’s needed was given to successfully learn Macramé. The detailed instructions were given for making knots, Cavandoli bindings, strings and cords, decorative beginnings, circled bindings, clothing items, and all other interpretations that are needed for successful realization of the projects. For those that know Macramé, the works in this book could serve as inspiration for future creative activities.
The book gives a small overview of the knots and interlaces of the monasteries of the Moravian school, which gave its full contribution in the development of decorative knots and interlacing with its stone plastic.
