Macramé is a form of textile that is produced using knitting techniques (not weaving or knitting).

The main vertices of macramé are square or reef vertices) and the form of "hitching": various combinations of half hitches. It has long been made by sailors, especially in the form of intricate knits or ornaments, to cover everything from knife handles to bottles to parts of ships.

Cavandoli macramé is one of the varieties used to form geometric patterns and free shapes such as weaving. The Cavandoli style is carried out mainly in one knot, double half-hitched knots. Reversing half the obstacles is sometimes used to maintain balance when working the left and right sides of a balanced piece.

Leather or fabric belts are another accessory that is often made through macramé techniques. Most of the friendship bracelets exchanged between school children and teenagers are created using this method. Sellers at amusement parks, malls, seasonal exhibitions, and other public places can also sell jewelry or macramé decorations.
