Macramé jewelry is handmade jewelry made by tying rope or yarn into knots according to specific patterns. The technique of macramé has been around for centuries and originates from the Middle East, but became popular in the West in the 1970s. Today, macramé jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces and earrings, are often made with decorative knots and decorated with beads, stones or other ornaments.
One of the most important materials used in making macrame jewelry is linhasita yarn. This yarn, which originates from Brazil, is known for its durability and wax coating, which makes it water resistant. This makes it ideal for macrame, as the knots stay firmly in place and do not come undone. Brazilian linhasita yarn often comes in a wide variety of colors and thicknesses, making it a versatile choice for jewelry making.
Because it has a wax coating, it is also widely used in jewelry that must withstand water, sweat and daily wear. This thread is loved by crafters for its strength and supple nature, which makes it easier to tie precise knots without the thread fraying.
