Wow! I love everything about it. I’ve tried it at least 5-6 times now and there is always something about it that is messed up. Started to get frustrated then remembered this is something I want to enjoy and learn and failures are very welcome. It helped a lot that u shared that it took you some time as well to be so good at it! Thank u for this helpful tutorial and your beautiful energy
This has to be the most clear tutorial I have found so far. I have been looking at other tutorials and thinking I would never be good enough to even try. Thank you 🙏
I'm a visual learner and I also love to listen to the explanation. I know it makes a huge difference. I try so hard to put in to terms every knotter will understand. I'm so happy you find it helpful!
This is exactly what I wanted to know and see... Beginning is a little bit easy but the end of wraping is such a big problem for me.. Now it is obvious. Thank you!
I'm glad my video can help you! I know for future reference I should slow my knotting down, I honestly didn't realize how fast I am! Once you get the hang of the few basic knots, macrame is easy peas, it's just the learning curve. Let me know if I can help you any more :)
I used to think it was really hard too Susan, I'm still learning but noticing it definitely gets easier as you learn some of the basic knots and practice. 2 months ago I tried wrapping cabs and gave up, too fiddly and too hard!!!! Today I started trying again and doing much better. All the best!!! :)
I do like that you explain what you're doing, that's great, however I would have liked the camera positioned so we could see what you are doing with the stone and pins at the beginning. But yes the dialogue is great and the visual of the string and knitting is great also.
This was very helpful!! I'm so happy I finally found this video, I've been trying to figure out what to do with the few cords at the top. Thank you so much😁
oh thank you so much for this video... u have saved all my 3 beautiful Stones lying in my drawer. I will definitely make all of them wearable. thanks.😍😍😍😘
I learned this method a few months back and I'm now seeing that if I try (not even too hard), I can slip the stone out of the wrap. I feel like I can't tie anything tighter and I'm stumped on what could possibly be creating this problem for me. If you have any input I'm all ears :)
Loved this tutorial, thank you! Would you(or anyone) happen to know how I would make the attachment so it can be made into a pendant ? The loop bit if that makes sense 😅!? I can't find that part anywhere 😣
There is a few ways to go about making a loop! In this tutorial I cut off all the cords so I can attach cords at my leisure. So here what I would do is add 4-6 cords to the top of the cabochon wrap and continue on with the necklace loop. :)
You're welcome! Yes, at the very end after I tuck the threads in to the back of the stone, after I tie them all together. I burn the very edges of the frays. :)
You see on the back, after you pull the two cords through the back? I burn the frayed edges off of those once I cut them off. so it would be the three cords hanging upwards. Do you see what I mean? it's a little hard to explain. Let me know if you need more clarification!
For someone just starting macrame jewelry and understanding the concept " and then you just start criss crossing" I have never rewound and rewatched a clip so many times my brain just doesn't get it..... I will get there ahha
For this tutorial, I only cut my two holding cords a little longer than the diameter of the stone. The working cord is about one and a half times my one arm span. For this kind of wrap, you only need just enough cord to knot and secure the wrap since you'll be cutting the excess off :)
This is awesome but it's wayyyyy to fast for me. I'm trying to catch up with you and see which cord you're pulling. Do you have a slower pace version. You're great by the way!
Now I know for future videos to slow down a bit, I didn't realize I went so fast! I apologize! If you click on the settings of the video, there is an option to slow it down so you can view it more clearly. :)
I apologize! If you click the settings button on the video, there is a speed option which you can change to make the video play slower so you can follow better. :) If you need any more help please feel free to ask!

Def the best and clearest tutorial on wrapping. Would really like to see you do more videos. :). Tank you
I like that you're explaining why you do things and how you do it because everything with knots is important.

Thank you for your time! How we know how long cord do we need for the stone? 😊
Thank you for your video
Hi! Fab tutorial, but what size cord are you using? 1 mm?
What mm size cord are you using? Please.
thank you for explaining this so well :)
I will try ...i love it
Thanks for your explicitement

Did you figure it out ??? Because I'm struggling with this 🤣
Can you please comment on your thread.. is it a .8? is it waxed? Cotton or nylon. Thank you smooch for you time and for sharing :)
How long do the strings have to be to make a necklace after?
can a stone be too slim to do this? i have a stone that is 2mm thick. i tried to wrap it like that and it;s slipping through...
Does the cord need to be waxed?
Loved this tutorial, thank you! Would you(or anyone) happen to know how I would make the attachment so it can be made into a pendant ? The loop bit if that makes sense 😅!? I can't find that part anywhere 😣
I know its not a wrapped cabachon in the video but I learned from this video how to make the bale (loop) and adapted it to the end of my cab :)
Search how to make a macreme bezel.
is there any way to macrame a loop for a necklace? please let me know ! thanks !
There is a few ways to go about making a loop! In this tutorial I cut off all the cords so I can attach cords at my leisure. So here what I would do is add 4-6 cords to the top of the cabochon wrap and continue on with the necklace loop. :)

Good
How do you know how long to make cords in relation to size of the stone especially a slab of agate for example
What is the name of the cord you used, and is it .5 m or 1m?
This is beautiful!
nice
Please tell me the clutches of the charge account collar.
bravissime vorrei tanto essere brava come te
Very helpful :)
thanks youu, awesome
Thanks so much for this video!! don't you burn the threads?
You're welcome! Yes, at the very end after I tuck the threads in to the back of the stone, after I tie them all together. I burn the very edges of the frays. :)
Do you burn only 4 thread on the back of the stone? don't you burn the two threads that you/they remain on the before of the stone?
You see on the back, after you pull the two cords through the back? I burn the frayed edges off of those once I cut them off. so it would be the three cords hanging upwards. Do you see what I mean? it's a little hard to explain. Let me know if you need more clarification!

how do you measure the cord
Stull couldnt do it 😢

You're welcome! Let me know if you have any other questions :)

Slowing down would be beneficial to learning how to do it. We cant see what your doing if your whipping through it.

ماشاء الله جميله انا مش عرفه هتعرفى كلامى ولا لاء انا من مصر
you go too fast, for a beginner I need it shown slower, I can't tell when you go under or over
I apologize! If you click the settings button on the video, there is a speed option which you can change to make the video play slower so you can follow better. :) If you need any more help please feel free to ask!
What cord you use mam?
