      Use a larger dowels or use sturdy rope in place of the dowels. I was looking at it thinking about how they’d hold up against fluffiness.

    Right, they’re not totally showing what’s happening here. I can sort of guess because I know macrame–but I would like to have better pictures to see exactly what’s happening.

    Alternating square knots? With one or two strands?

  4. todd says:

    In place of the vertical dowels, like 3/4 inch thick rope use 2 strands each side. Would make it a little easier to roll up in winter
