Learn how to create a beautiful macramé luminary that can hold flowers, pens, or a candle—a handmade piece you'll enjoy for years to come. Teaching artist Kathy Prekoski will guide you through the process with step-by-step instruction, sharing essential knots and helpful macramé techniques you can apply to future projects. This beginner-friendly class covers the lark's head knot and square knot, while those with previous experience are encouraged to customize the pattern and create their own unique designs.

No experience is necessary. Come with a friend or on your own and enjoy a fun, creative afternoon while learning a new skill!

About Our Teaching Artist:

Growing up in Ojai as a child of an artist and school teacher, I have been a crafter all my life. In the last 7 years I have enjoyed playing around with knots and creating macrame pieces. My recent passion is recreating lamp shades, although I love to design hangings and repurpose jars into luminaries and vases. My business name is Knot for Now.
