Macrame Bags
Description:
A macramé bag is a type of handbag or tote made using the macramé technique, which involves
knotting cords or strings together to create intricate patterns and designs. These bags are typically crafted by
knotting various types of cords, such as cotton or jute, in unique and decorative ways to form a sturdy and
stylish bag. Macramé bags often have a bohemian or beachy look and are popular for their natural and
handmade aesthetic. They can come in various sizes and shapes, from small purses to larger shoulder bags,
and are known for their versatility and distinctive, textured appearance.
Trivia:
● Humans have been tying “functional” knots since the prehistoric period.
● Macramé's knot-tying origins can be traced back to 13th-century Arabic decorative weavers who used
the knots to secure loose ends of woven textiles, like towels and shawls.
● The macrame meaning and name itself are considered to come either from the Arabic word
'migramah,'meaning ornamental fringe or from the Turkish word 'makrama,' meaning towel or napkin.
