This design inspiration demonstrates how to make macrame bands in different styles. They can be used as bag straps, handles, or just for embellishment. Under each image is indicated what knot is need to make the band and colour-coded to show its manipulation.
I can envision this in a leather lacing or ornamental rope.

You can thank Stefan for the colour-coding. It certainly helped me to follow the assembly method.
