Talk:Macramé

But is it lace?
I suggest removing macrame from the template Lace types. It can go at the top level of Textile arts. Thoughts? - PKM 00:10, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Grunge?
Grunge happened well after the last hippie became a stockbroker, and to the very best of my knowledge (and I am a middle-aged Washingtonian), had strictly no connection to macramé whatsoever. Laodah (talk) 18:08, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Is anyone able to add pronunciation? 92.236.69.154 (talk) 12:01, 6 December 2018 (UTC)


 * I pronounce it ma-KRAH-maay with my Received Pronunciation English accent because the acute accent over the final vowel, (and that's how I remember it being pronounced when I first heard it as a child.) alexx (talk) 10:26, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

It depends where you are from: In the US it is Mac-ra-MAY, in Australia it is mah-CROM-me 108.233.106.215 (talk) 15:55, 30 December 2019 (UTC)PhyllisBeaMyra

What is the source of the term "bell fringes"?
I have heard of a macramé handle under a ships bell being called: a bell pull a bellrope a bell handle a clapper tassel

but if I google "bell fringe" all I get is Leonard Nimoy. Can anyone shed some light on the term bell fringes? alexx (talk) 10:34, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
