I've been making these since last week. Rope is a perfect material to make bracelets. It doesn't slip when you tie a knot and it's resistant so that the bracelets can't tear up that easily. It's also very cheap (a ball with 60 metres of rope only costs about 2 €), so I can make a whole bunch of these from just one ball of rope! This also means that I can experiment with new designs - if I stuff up, I can just throw it away and start a new one without too much damage :-) These are great fun to make! I'm actually thinking of making myself a belt for my jeans with the flat and straight macrame pattern (as you can see on the top three bracelets).
