Introduction
I have fond memories of going to Grateful Dead concerts as a teenager. I was twelve when their lead guitarist Jerry died, but fortunately the rest of the band continued to tour. The lot scenes at the concerts were incredible, especially the spontaneous drum circles that seemed to erupt on every corner. It was a sea of tie dye and corduroy patchwork, both of which I am in love with. Not to mention the fairy wings, bubbles and balloons. The air was sweet with the scent of incense, patchouli, and, well, other things. It was magical, like a scene from what I could only have imagined Woodstock had been. I was amazed by the people. Everyone seemed so friendly and full of hugs, and no one acted like a stranger.
Vendors flooded the lots outside the concerts. Some of them sold food, but most of them sold art of one kind or another. Among the artists were glassblowers, clothing makers, jewelry makers and everything in between. You name it and you could find it, or if you couldn’t, someone knew someone who could. I met one artist who was set up in the back of her highly decorated Volks wagon bus. On display was every color and style of hemp jewelry that I could ever have imagined. She even made toe rings from hemp! I was completely blown away. I mean, I always had a thing for macramé, but this stuff was unbelievable! I almost didn’t want to touch it, for fear that I would somehow contaminate it with my untrained hands. I never saw the jewelry maker after that, but I have never forgotten the impression that her jewelry made on me. That was the moment I knew that I had to learn the art of macramé for myself.
My first attempt at making jewelry was terrible. I bought a jewelry kit from a large chain store expecting to make a masterpiece on my first try. It was one that had precut hemp strands and all of the beads and such that were necessary to make a necklace. The instructions that came with it were—let’s just say less than clear
to be nice. The illustrations were even worse than the instructions. By the end of my attempt, I had a string of knotty ugliness that resembled a new dreadlock. If you have never seen a new dreadlock, think of an angry or frightened cat’s tail. I thought I had followed the instructions exactly as they were written. Maybe I am just a little terrible at following instructions. Either way, it would be a while before I would try it again. A couple of years, actually, until I re-united with a friend (now best friend), Stephanie- aka Moonshyne. She showed me the knots and I couldn’t believe how simple it actually was. Once again I cursed the unclear directions I’d followed in the past, and myself for giving up so easily.
Moonshyne and I began making a lot of jewelry together after that, and many times we would even make our own beads and pendants for the jewelry. Getting the basics down opened the door to a whole new world of jewelry making for me. I began experimenting with new knots, colors, styles, and sizes of hemp. I have not turned back or stopped experimenting to this day, and I
