Beginner Macrame Video for a Pacifier Holder and Teether Combo.
My husband and I are new grandparents. Our grandchild is 9 months old and in the teething phase. I see all of the different teething things they have now and the one thing she chews the most is the pacifier holder fabric. So, I wanted to try to teach myself the art of Macrame anyway and thought what a great first project because the knots in the holder will be great for soothing a teething baby.
Supplies
Cotton yarn
Alligator clip
Ruler
Scissors

You will begin with adding your yarn to the alligator clip with a “Larks Head Knot”

You will now add your square knots
Row 1: 1 square knot across 3x’s
Row 2: 1 square knot 2x’s to join the first three.

Pacifier Loop
Once you reach the length you want you will take the longest thread and tie it in a knot with another piece of yarn to make the pacifier holder loop.
Finishing
Once the pacifier loop is made you will take an extra piece of yarn and do the “Standard Wrap” to tie it all together. When done you will want to trim all of the yarn ends EXCEPT the pacifier loop.
