DIY macrame garden chair / Alison Allen

Here’s a summer project you’ll definitely want to try your hand at — a macrame-wrapped chair by Alison Allen. Give your patio a summer-ready makeover with a colourful macrame folding chair. It’s a fun, inexpensive way to makeover an aluminium frame, and it’s sure to command attention at your BBQ. Follow the pattern or create your own design, and don’t be afraid to go as bold as you like. Take extra care to make sure the cord doesn’t get twisted as you wrap by keeping your skein under the chair while you work — via Mollie Makes
