MWM|| Mi primer tapiz elaborado con la técnica macramé.
Happy and blessed NeedleWorkMonday dear friends, it is a pleasure to share another creative Monday with all of you. Over the weekend I was traveling and could not move forward with my knitted projects. However, today I took some time to elaborate the project I share with you below. It is a hanging tapestry made with the macramé technique.
For some time now I have been enjoying the incredible macramé pendants made by our colleague @irenenavarroart and since then I have been curious to learn more about this technique. Irene's pendants are really works of art worthy of an exhibition, when I saw them I thought about the degree of difficulty of these tapestries, however, I have also seen the projects of her young son Rafael, who obviously inherited his mother's talent for art, who has shared with us simpler projects. Honestly, Rafael's pendants encouraged me to try and lose my fear. However, I decided to start with something much more basic and simpler so as not to get frustrated along the way.
El hilo que utilice es macramé acrílico de 2mm de grosor en los colores blanco y gris plomo.
The first thing I did was to look for tutorials for beginners and that's how I found a video with this simple tapestry. The pattern is that of a cat, which I thought was great because I could pay homage to my beloved cat Giorno. Besides watching the tutorial several times, I was also practicing the knots used in this type of tapestry.
The thread I used is 2mm thick acrylic macramé in the colors white and lead gray.
Although I worked step by step following the video tutorial and the pattern chart, I must confess that I made several mistakes and had to unknit. I have to say that at first I was a little stressed because I felt that I was not advancing as fast as I usually do with crochet, but then I was patient and tried to enjoy the process. This is a very fun technique, but you have to work with a lot of concentration to avoid getting confused in the pattern.
Estoy muy contenta por haberme animado a intentar esta técnica y espero seguir aprendiendo este bonito arte.
Muchas gracias por leer, saludos y bendiciones.
Making this small tapestry made me admire Irene and her little son Rafael's work much more, since they make much more elaborate figures with several different colors and their work is impeccable. I was just working with two colors and I can recognize that I have to improve many details so that the result is neater.
I am very happy to have been encouraged to try this technique and I hope to continue learning this beautiful art.
Thank you very much for reading, greetings and blessings.
