4 Daisy Knot Patterns

Daisy knot patterns can vary due to different techniques and preferences.

These variations offer unique looks to your projects, adding personal touches to each design.

It's helpful to know and understand these variations so you can pick the one that best fits your needs.

Materials and Cord Details

For demonstrating daisy knot patterns, I used the following materials:

• Wooden Dowel: Used for mounting the cords.
• 4mm Braided Cotton Cords: Flexible and soft, ideal for knotting.

Colored Cord lengths used:

• Peachy Pink: Multiple lengths, including 150 cm and 175 cm.
• Sea Green: Common lengths are 100 cm and 125 cm.
• Canary Yellow: Common length is 100 cm.
• Sky Blue: Common lengths are 125 cm.

Keep these specifications in mind when preparing your materials.

Macrame Knots you will need to know to make these Daisy Knot Patterns

For this project, you will need to know the following knots:

• Reverse Lark’s Head Knot
• Vertical Lark's Head Knot
• Half Hitch knot
• Square knot

The above knots are basic knots widely used in many macrame projects.

The more you practice and repeat these knots, the more confident you'll become at tying them.

This confidence will open the door to experimenting with more complex patterns and designs.

I have compiled a FREE EBOOK guide, "50 Macrame Knots & Sennits Guide," that goes over step by step with pictures on how to make 50 different knots and sennits.

This guide will assist you in learning the knots and provide insights into creating unique knot sequences and pattern designs.

First Daisy Knot Pattern

To start, you'll need two strands of cord in different colors.

Use a 150 cm pink strand and a 100 cm green strand.

Step 1

• Fold the green strand in half and attach it to the wooden dowel with a lark's head knot.

Step 2

• Overlap the Cords: Take the two vertical green cords and cross them in opposite directions.
• Attach Pink Cord: Fold the pink cord in half and attach it to the crossed green cords with a reverse lark's head knot.

Step 3

• Make a Vertical Lark's Head Knot: Using the middle right cord as a working cord, make a vertical lark's head knot onto the far right cord. This knot should face the inside of the daisy knot.

Step 4

• Mirror the Knot: Repeat the above step on the left side.

Step 5

• Complete the First Daisy Knot: Overlap the anchor cords again.
• Make a half hitch knot using the middle right and left cords.
• This completes the first daisy knot pattern.

To keep the pattern going, overlap and cross the anchor cords and start making the half hitch knots on both sides.

Continue this process as many times as you'd like.

This first daisy knot pattern is simple yet elegant, perfect for any project.

Second Daisy Knot Pattern

For this pattern, you'll need three different cords. Use a pink cord that's 150 cm long, a green cord that's 125 cm long, and 100 cm yellow cord.

Step 1

• Begin by attaching the green cord to a dowel using a Lark's head knot.
• Fold the pink cord in half and secure it onto the overlapped cords with a reverse Lark's head knot, then pull to tighten.

Step 2

• Make a Vertical Lark's Head Knot: Using the middle right cord as a working cord, make a vertical lark's head knot onto the far right cord.
• This knot should face the outside  of the daisy knot.
• Mirror the Knot: Repeat the above step on the left side.

Step 3

• To make the knot more interesting, we'll introduce a third color. 
• Next, fold the yellow cord in half and attach it with a reverse Lark's head knot in the center.

Step 4

• Once tightened, use the green cords as anchors and the pink cords as working cords to create vertical Lark's head knots on both the right and left sides.
• Next, take the far left and right pink and green cords and make a half-hitch knot. 

Step 5

Sealing with a Square Knot

• To clean up the look, use a square knot.
• Overlap the green cords and use them to hide the other cords within the knot.
• Although using a square knot is optional, it can help tidy up and transition smoothly between sections of the daisy knot.

Sealing without a Square Knot

• Continue forming the daisy pattern like before.
• When the pattern reaches the middle again, use the yellow cords to make a half hitch knot on both sides, then finish up the pattern as usual.

Third Daisy Knot Pattern with Beads

For this third design, you will use beads to add a decorative touch to the daisy knot pattern.

Step 1

• Start with two cords: a 125 cm blue cord and a 175 cm pink cord.
• Attach the blue cord to the dowel using a lark's head knot.
• Fold the pink cord in half and attach it to the crossed blue cords with a reverse lark's head knot.

Step 2

• Begin by making outer-facing vertical lark's head knots on both sides with the pink cords.

Step 3

• Next, bring the pink cords to the middle.
• Use a bead with a hole that is at least 7mm in diameter to fit the 4mm cords.
• Thread the left cord through the bead from left to right, then thread the right cord through the bead from right to left.
• Tighten the cords so the bead sits snugly in the center.

Step 4

• Make another vertical lark's head knot on both sides.
• To finish, crossover the anchor cords at the bottom and make two half-hitch knots.
• Repeat this pattern by crossing the anchor cords and making half-hitch knots above.
• Continue the daisy knot pattern as needed to complete your project.

Fourth Daisy Knot Pattern

Making a Bigger Daisy Knot with Two Strands

This pattern makes a larger, more elaborate daisy knot by using two strands of cord in the middle.

Step 1

• To create a bigger daisy knot, you'll need two pink cords of 175 cm each and two blue cords of 125 cm each.
• Attach the blue cords to the dowel using a lark's head knot.

Step 2

• Fold each pink cord in half.
• Take the middle right pink cord and make 2 vertical lark's head knot on the far right blue cord.
• Repeat this step on the left side using the left pink cord.

Step 3

• Take middle two pink cord, thread bead through.
• Make vertical lark's head knot pattern around the bead on both sides.
• Close off the pattern with 4 half hitch knots at the bottom.
• Pull on anchor cords to tighten.

Step 4

• To start the next pattern underneath, start by how we ended of with 4 half-hitch knots
• Cross the blue cords over and start again with the half hitch knots.
• Repeat to finish off the pattern.
