About this collection
I don't just knot these bags, I make them functional for your actual daily life. Every tote and shoulder bag I create includes a secure cotton or canvas lining, so you never have to worry about small items slipping through the weave. Whether you want a specific color to match your favorite outfit or need an extra durable strap for heavier loads, I can adjust the knotting and hardware to fit exactly what you need.
Why a macrame bag?
Honestly, it is all about that texture. When I started knotting, I realized macrame is more than just home decor, it brings such a lovely boho energy to an outfit. My shoulder and tote bags are designed to handle your daily essentials, like your phone, wallet, and keys, without adding bulk.
Built for durability
I use 3mm to 5mm recycled cotton cords because they hold their shape beautifully. For my larger totes, I use a thicker gauge cord and double knotting techniques to make sure the bag can take a bit of weight if you are heading to the market or carrying a tablet. Plus, the hardware matters. I use sturdy D-rings, swivel hooks, and reliable magnetic closures so you can go about your day without fussing with your bag.
Make it yours
The best part about my shop is that you are not stuck with off-the-shelf colors. If you see a design you love but want it in a different shade, maybe a deep maroon, a soft lavender, or a bright neon, just let me know. I keep a large stash of cotton cords and can create matching sets for you and your friends. Since everything is made right here in my studio in Ambala, I can keep an eye on every single knot, ensuring each piece is unique and stays strong for a long time.
