| Macramé has
become extremely popular among contemporary textile crafstpeople.
The craft dates back to the days of prehistory,
for caveman tied knots in long grasses and in plant and animal
fibres, not only to hold things together but as a form of decoration.
Through the centuries knotting as a decoration was developed until,
in Renaissance Italy, it came into its own as a form of beautiful
lace known as punto a gropo (knotted lace). |
