I had these terrific big hole ceramic beads in my stash that I've been wanting to use and I've also been wanting to learn how to do macrame. I think I'm one of the few people on the planet who didn't learn macrame when I was a teen! Anyway, thanks to youtube, I figured out how to make a basic fishtail weave. I used black paracord for the anklet and a button as a clasp. Thanks for looking! Dawn

Thanks, Michelle! I love anklets too and wear them all summer long. Oddly enough, this is the first time I've made them. Well, that's not entirely true - I did make a red one for myself several years ago, but that was the only one. You'd think someone who wears them all the time, would make them more often! Dawn

I like anklets, but since I can't go barefoot in my shoes, I don't wear them.
So pretty, Dawn! The dragonfly is my favorite of course!

So cute, Dawn! I used to wear anklets. I guess I've gotten out of the habit...
Like you, I never learned to macrame. I need to learn because there are lots of cool uses for it, especially in jewelry.

Thank you, Cat and Gayle! Gayle, there are lots of youtube videos about macrame. It's actually quite fun and a lot easier than I expected it to be. Dawn

I have never worn anklets because I am sensitive to anything that is wound around my feet except for socks in the winter, but I like to watch them on other women. These are very pretty. I love the second and last ones best.

Thank you, Caroline! I have some thinner paracord on it's way to me which will allow me to make daintier macrame weaves. Dawn
