Hello mam...i try to make through your interaction but it didn't...i try with my picture
But this app didn't help me
Delightful!! I need to do my Bernedoodle. Great job, easy to follow and you’re very well spoken, that’s a plus! 👏👏👏
Wow! This is amazing! I am just beginning my macrame journey again since the 70s. My dream is to do pixel macrame art. Thank you for sharing!
💙 You’re very welcome and you totally can do this! Once you master your vertical double half hitch knot it’s easy peasy…I do recommend starting with a smaller pixel pattern though. Good luck! 🤗💙
I can’t wait to try this! I did counted cross stitch for years so this all makes sense to me and for the past year I’ve taken up macrame again, I did a lot in the 70’s. Just a heads up there are 2 pixel arts, I downloaded the wrong one ( darn it) but now have the correct one. The wrong one requires a subscription so now I must remember to cancel after the 7 day free trial. 😀 thanks so much for sharing this.
💙 Yes it’s totally just like a cross stitch pattern! I love cross stitch as well…tho it’s been awhile since I’ve done one
These types of patterns are also called “alpha patterns” as well and you can find many already created on Pinterest too (if you aren’t down to making your own). Just be careful of copyright infringement. Some creators don’t like others using their images
And I’m sorry, I didn’t realize there was two apps named PixelArt. I downloaded mine quite a long time ago 😅
Is it the one by Bryan Ware that you use? There are many options….
I simply love this macrame.(congrats) 💓
wow, you have no idea how much you've helped people with this video! thank you so much for this!
Thank you so much for this informative video. It was easy to understand.
💙 You’re welcome and I’m so happy to hear that 🤗🐶
I loved it.. and yes pls consider to make a tutorial at the back. Thank you
💙 Thank you and I’ll see what I can do 🤗🐶
Absolutely gorgeous! ❤️❤️❤️
💙 Thank you! 🤗🐶
Super goal... I m not so modern, but this is a totally upgraded method to make my own pictures pixeled and macrame them. Toooop
💙 oh I have total faith that you could do it. Despite how it seems, I’m NOT very tech savvy 🙈 If I can do it, you totally can too 🤗
@@SimplyInspiredbySheena 😉😂 thank you For the good words...
I love it! Thank you for sharing. ❤️
💙 You’re welcome! So happy you love it 🤗🐶
Divino, me encantará intentarlo y lograrlo con mis gatos.
Wow that’s so cool
💙 Thanks! I’m glad you like it ☺️💙
THIS IS THE CUTEST 😭😭😭
💙 haha thank you!! Bailey was so camera shy he was shaking! …and I totally know the feeling! 😅 #stagefright
👍👍🥰🐶🇧🇪coucou de.belgique bravos très jolie
💙 Thank you! And thanks for watching as always 🤗🐶
so helpful thank you 💜
💙 You’re welcome and I’m happy to hear that 🤗🐶
Thank you so much ...would love to make one ..having problems making the picture part..wondering if you would do a tutorial of how to use the app . Just a thought . Would love to beagle to use one of my own pictures
💙 you’re in luck!! I do have a tutorial on how I use the free app! The only difference for you is that you’ll want to choose the import picture option and then edit over top of it to suit your needs. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/UoxEH31C9Y0/видео.htmlsi=LNpg3pIf4t2Aw2zL
Thank you that very useful and so beautiful 🤧you are amazing 🎉❤❤❤❤❤

¡Me encanta! Gracias por compartir!
💙 You’re welcome! 🤗🐶
This is amazing
Wonderful,thanks a lot.
You rock thank you for sharing 😊
💙👩🏻🎤🎸 haha thanks!
Thank you for this awesome video, using cotton cord for a single hanging cord would be too bulky?
💙 Do you mean as the hanger for it? No that wouldn’t be bulky at all! That’s usually what I do 😊
Thank you 🙏🏾
Awesomw! Do you apply any kind of waterproof or dust protection on you pieces?
A great tutorial ❤️❤️
I have a question am confused how you count the stitches? Based on the width of your dowel? Can you give an example pls🌸🌸
💙 it really depends on the size of rope. I’ve done this a few times so I just know 22 3.35mm single strand cords fit across a 12 inch wooden dowel….however when I do custom pieces I will attach the larks head knots on first then adjust my pattern to fit that measurement
Muito lindo seu trabalho, gostaria de fazer a minha gata, mas não consigo deixas a foto dela como você fez com o cachorrinho. A primeira parte do Pixel-Stitch entendi, mas esse outro programa que você pintou o fundo e selecionou as cores para ficar mais fácil fazer o trabalho de macrame não consegui entender. poderia colocar o link dos apps ou programas que você utilizou? Obrigada.
Achei o site e o app, agora não sei usar.
This is amazing! I want to do a picture of my daughter's dog but I feel like I am missing something. When I print my pic at 44 stitches I am not getting that cute pattern you have of Bailey. Please help. I used the stitch app not the website you shared and her dog is black and white so I was going for a blue background.
💙 Hmm if you are using the same app (PixelArt) as I’m, you will need to take a screenshot of your pattern in order to keep those grid lines. Check out my other tutorial on creating your own Pixel pattern here: ruclips.net/video/UoxEH31C9Y0/видео.html hopefully it helps 🤗💙
I love this project idea so much! What did type of yarn did you use for the base strands?
💙 Thank you! Glad you like it 😊 I used 3.35mm single strand cotton rope purchased from RopeShop.ca
This is awesome thank you
Great ✨
Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I have a a couple questions regarding material and procedure. You used t-shirt yarn or the type of yarn you used here in the tutorials that I have watched. Do you always use this type of material for colors? Do you ever use the same size cord for color? I'm wondering if I can use macrame cord for color? Meaning if I used 3.5 cords to attach to dowel could I use 3.5 macrame cord for color areas? If yes, would I wrap 2 cords at a time or 1 cord at a time? How do you determine whether to wrap 1 or 2 cords at a time? I have seen it done both ways. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time.
💙 Hello Tracy 👋🏻 So….I like using t-shirt yarn, and regular yarn because it’s MUCH more inexpensive than buying dyed single strand rope. It also comes in way more colours and is easier to find…AND sometimes you can get some pretty cool textures going on with it (see my faux fur bunny wall hanging). But yes, you most definitely can use the same cotton rope as your filler cords
Now the reason why some patterns have you tie your vertical double half hitch knots around two cords rather than one is because of what size of rope/yarn you are using. The goal is to have your VDHH knot be a compact square shape to mimic your grid pattern. If it’s off in size that’s when your image will start to distort-you get squat or elongated images.
The rule of thumb is, your filler cords need to be twice the diameter of the working cords.
That is why when I use t-shirt yarn I need to tie it around two filler cords, same as if I were using cotton rope. But if I’m using regular yarn it’s about half the size of the filler cord so I would then only tie my knot around one cord
…I hope that makes sense and answers your questions 💙
@@SimplyInspiredbySheena Thank you so much for answering my questions and explaining wrapping 1 verses wrapping 2. Things make sense now and it explains why the one I did previously (my project not from your tutorial) gave me so many problems. Yes ma'am you did answer all of my questions. Thanks again for taking the time to respond to me. Much appreciated!
@@tracys.6033 💙 You’re very welcome, I’m happy to help 🤗
Any other app u suggest
I want to thank you for your explanation it is quite simple and enough, I have a question please
How can we know the length of cord for each color depending on a design ?
your prompt reply is highly appreciated , thanks is advance for your kindness :)
💙 It’s really difficult to estimate how much you need as vertical double half hitch knots take up quite a lot of rope. It also depends on the creator’s tension, and the rope they are using. Because of all these variables I don’t like to give exact measurements, instead I like to think of it as a knitting or crochet pattern and state how many balls of yarn (or pounds of rope in my case) that will be needed. That way it gives plenty of room for error
@@SimplyInspiredbySheena thanks for replying ❤️
Hoe groot moet je foto zijn,bedankt voor het delen van deze video
Hi how do you work out different sizes and then what to put in for the app?
💙 Mostly trail and error. I know that with the rope I use I can comfortably fit 22 larks head knots across the top of my 12 inch (30cm) dowel. So that gives me up to 44 strands of rope in total. I can make a large detailed grid pattern using yarn as my working cords with the horizontal dimension of 44 cubes across. Or I can make a more simple pattern using rope or t-shirt yarn by tying my VDHH knots around two cords at a time, which would make the horizontal dimension on my grid pattern to be 22 cubes across…..the vertical dimension in both scenarios doesn’t matter too much because as long as my rope fits nicely on the top of the dowel my pattern can be as long as it needs to be, I generally over estimate the length when designing and then crop the bottom of my pattern where it’s ascetically pleasing
How long are each of the pieces of colored cord that you added?
Love it. Where did you get the board you were working on? I think I need one if those.
💙 Thank you! I got the macrame board from Amazon! I think this is the exact one (I had it flipped over in the video)

@@SimplyInspiredbySheena thanks! I'm going to grab me one.
@@mareshank9454 💙 It’s definitely very handy to have, I use mine almost daily!
I've been using a cork board but it's just a little to small. Thanks for always teaching me something new.
Hello.... such beautiful work. I want to try this. What is the app called? I cannot find the same one
💙 Hi, the app is called PixelArt but I believe it’s only available for iPhone users
Hello,
Great work! I would love to be able to do this.
Unfortunately not getting on with the web version.
Has anyone in the Uk found an app very similar and simple?
Many thanks 😊
It's didn't work mam...tell me what to do
Thanks beautiful
I am so excited to try this but when I upload my photo they are SO pixelated they just look like blobs. Any tips for me?
💙 Which method are you using? If you are using the app you are going to have to draw over top of the image to narrow down the colours. If you are using the website you really need to start off with a very good clear image. Both methods work best if you have quite a large portrait that fills the frame, anything small and detailed tends to get lost in the pixelation process. I hope that helps you, it takes a bit of playing around with it
Love it and thnks. Too fast for me😔 will like to learn😥
💙 Yes this one is definitely more advanced than other VDHH patterns of mine. I recommend you take a peek at some of my smaller more simple ones to start off with. I have an entire playlist AND tomorrow I have a super easy one coming out of an anchor. Here is my playlist in the meantime ruclips.net/p/PLRp2nS1VndIoDbu5cPA4YS1Y0gLzsphbH
Hope that helps 🤗
Thnks😃
I will take a peek,👀 love and thnk You for sharing🥰
@@lacarola6513 💙 not a problem! Let me know which pattern you love the most (it helps me design new ones) 🤗
Thanks thanks
💙 You’re very welcome! 🤗🐶
I can't find the app!? Is it only for iphone?
💙 Yes unfortunately it’s only compatible with iOS. I’m looking into finding one that works across all devices but in the meantime you could try pixel stitch if you are working from an image
Can you please make same like this of german shepherd
Hello would there be a way I can contact and have you help with a photo of my dog. I am not getting the app to work for me.
What is the name of the application?
💙 The app is called PixelArt, I’m not sure if it’s still free or available in all countries though
Hi I am trying to follow your instructions for pixel macrame I was going ok until I downloaded my pic it looked nothing like my pic then I tried to edit the colours and things went really pear shaped. It was impossible to edit the colours with my finger is that how it’s done? Please tell me where I’m going wrong and how to do it right.
💙 Hey I just messaged you on Facebook but I’ll kinda repeat myself here too in case someone else might have a similar situation ☺️
Geometric images or any images with lots of lines and shapes is more difficult for the image converter. I usually hand draw my pattern out if it’s not converting well
Hand drawing out a pattern is really time consuming but you do get quicker after some practice and remember to save often. I’ve had the app crash on me and lost my work before 😣
I do use my finger to hand draw it but a stylus would work too. And don’t forget that you can zoom in and zoom out to get more details
Hope that helps 🤗
Once again thank you so much for your help regards Colleen
Could you give me the exact name of your app, I’ve downloaded 2 and I don’t think either one is the right one.
💙 I certainly can! I’ve been told that it’s not available in some countries and it was free when I downloaded it but someone said it wasn’t free for her. Here is the link: apps.apple.com/ca/app/pixel-art-maker/id897806469
Maravilhoso 👏👏👏👏
💙 Thank you! 🤗🐶
I would love to get one done. Do you take order?
👍💛🐶🤩🤗belgique
I made it, but now my wall hanging and dog are barking at eachother. :/
💙 Once one claims dominance the barking should stop 😆
He, can you plz give link Of the app.
Senhor e mt lindo! Pena que vc nao mostra realmente como faz até o final, e também não coloca legenda em português 😏👎
😍👏👏👏👏🇧🇷
Can you do macrame llama
Do you have a link for the 3.35 mm single strand cotton cord?
💙 I sure do! ropeshop.ca/shop/cotton/single-strand-cotton/
@@SimplyInspiredbySheena I live in the Netherlands (Europe). Not so easy to find this 3.35 mm cord here. Could I use another thickness?
@@felicityparrott6030 💙 4mm single strand would work and probably be easier to find…but, when choosing your yarn make sure it’s half the thickness of your rope. You want your vertical double half hitch knots to look as close to perfect squares as possible, just like the grid pattern. Otherwise your image will distort
@@SimplyInspiredbySheena I'm sorry, I'm confused. I have autism and MS. What macramé cord should I look for if I want the first set to be 4 mm? Also, would the same length of stick still be enough?
@@felicityparrott6030 💙 that’s okay, 4mm single strand cotton rope would work just fine. It’s not a huge difference from the 3.35mm I used so it should still fit fine on a 12 inch wooden dowel. Then you would need medium worsted weight yarn but as you tie your knots just make sure they are relatively square in shape to mimic your grid pattern. You might need to tie your knots tighter or looser to get the right shape…I hope that makes sense and helps. Good luck and happy macraming 🤗
Mam please give us app link
