To most people, the purpose of making a knot is simple: to tie or fasten items together. But in Korea, knots have evolved to a part of clothing and room d?cor. Korean knot craft is quite different from macram?. Some of the major differences between the two are that while macram?accessories are often made of cotton and/or leather and in combination of multiple strings, Korean knots are usually made of a single string of silk by using various techniques to give them a three dimensional image.

 

The art of tying knots has been passed down for four generations in this workshop, making it a great place to experience Korean knot craft. Visitors also get a chance to make bracelets and smartphone strings.
