knot art and macrame for distinctive interiors

Welcome to Newport Knots, where I hope to bring joy and inspire others through custom macrame art and workshops.

There's something very special about macrame. It's an ancient art that has been practiced around the globe for as long as there's been rope. And in today's world, macrame is also an opportunity for connection, relaxation, and creativity. In our mass-produced world, making and displaying hand-crafted items enriches our lives.

I have been exploring fiber arts since my middle school crochet club. My current work is characterized by simple, natural materials like pure cotton rope and local driftwood, crafted with exceptional attention to detail. I create unique, modern pieces that bring joy to others and I specialize in designing and crafting statement pieces.
