The ultimate guide to creating and styling modern macrame projects in the home from top creative tastemaker and sought-after macrame artist Emily Katz.
Macrame-the fine art of knotting-is an age-old craft that's undergoing a contemporary renaissance. At the heart of this resurgence is Emily Katz, a lifestyle icon and artist who teaches sold out macrame workshops around the world and creates swoon-worthy aspirational interiors with her custom hand-knotted pieces. Modern Macrame is a stylish, contemporary guide to the traditional art and craft of macrame, including 33 projects, from driftwood wall art and bohemian light fixtures to macrame rugs and headboards. The projects are showcased in easy to follow and photogenic project layouts, guiding both the novice and the more experienced crafter in a highly achievable way.
Included with every project are thoughtful lifestyle tips showing how macrame can provide the perfect finishing touch for the modern, well-designed home-whether it's a hundred-year-old farmhouse, a sophisticated loft, or a cozy but stylish rental.

Praise for Emily Katz:
"Emily Katz is basically the interior designer we wish was our BFF.... Not only is she a macrame? wiz (a hobby we're all about to take up, like, right now), but she also puts together super dreamy rooms and takes insanely rad pics of them when she's done, so you can totally live out the dream over Insta."
-Nylon
"Do you know Emily? She's a macrame? wizard. Plant holders, hammocks, nap benches: She can do it all and she does it well."
-Buzzfeed
