Here is THE LINK WHERE TAUGHT HOW TO CREATE THE WONDERFUL MANDALAS MACRAME ..
The tutorial
Step 1
Cut 7 wires of the same size (about 50cm). Take one and fold it in half as shown in image
Step 2
In this case I tense between 2 brads for easy at work, but you can simply fold it flat on a table.
Step 3
Add one of the threads that cut above and knot the thread and folded, using the knot lark.
Step 4
This must be the crux of lark
Step 5
Then add the rest of the threads using the same knot until it is like the image.
Step 6
If you tightened the first thread, now I will loose to take the points and pass through the middle of the circle that was just around the line.
Step 7
Now throw really hard until all knots are well attached. It should be this way.
Step 8
We take a thread of another color, in this case edge (about 50cm) approx. And with a knot tied at 2 of the wires coming out of the circle was formed.
Step 9
Then tie the other 2 missing in the same thread.
Step 10
Crossed threads to start making a knot. Take the one that was on the right side, we passed above the left, then take it out below and the "curls" on top of itself.
Step 11
Once the knot is formed in a similar procedure to another. (All nodes will be double)
So it should be:
Step 12
Took one of the first knotted strands (in this case the dark red or burgundy), we passed above the other wire and tied it one of the threads that tied at the previous step, red. (Obviously if you take the left side thread, tied to red left).
The knot will be as shown in the image, and will double knot as I explained earlier, being as follows:
Step 13
Do the same with the other thread. We had above the rest, and tied the other red wire as shown in the image.
Then make the second loop:
Step 14
Thread is passed beneath the left edge of the right to then double knot, as shown in the following images:
Step 15
Repeat with the next thread that tied in steps 8 and 9, in this case the red. We had above the rest, and tied this time the red and burgundy threads, as illustrated.
Then we took the last, black, and tied on red, burgundy, and finally red, which we use in this step.
Step 16
We leave that job to a side, and took another pair of wires. Repeat all the procedures from step 8 through step 15 inclusive.
Should look like this:
Step 17
We took the red wires as shown in the left image and passed underneath the right to make a double knot
Step 18
At the end of the knot, pass the red line below the rim and knotted with a double knot.
Repeat the procedure from the same red thread the other thread that is, being as shown in the image:
Step 19
Now do the same but the other side. Embroidered knotted and then to red.
Step 20
We take the following thread in this case the board and tied together by double knot.
Step 21
Embroidered Tie the red wire to 2, as shown in the image
Step 22
Finally the last 2 red knotted with a double knot.
Step 23
Repeat all steps for all pairs of threads that remain to us from the circle of step 7 and join them in the same way it is explained between step 17 and 23, that way we have a flower / mandala.
The remaining wires are simply cut and burn!
Variation to make a larger flower
To make a larger flower (about 7cm approx) 7-wire should be added instead of 3 in step 7
Then in step 15 must also tie the knot with each other (in this case the 2 edges and 2 black, red knot as in step 14) But only the first 3, then go "separating" as seen in the image of step 15
