Welcome to United Knots! That’s me there, I'm Robyn Gough.

A cotton-loving crafter, qualified textiles artist, and master of macramé, here to teach you crafts online for FREE!

For me, it is more than just my hobby, it is my career and business. This website's resources and products are driven by my desire to teach macrame and to raise the profile of this craft by reaching as many people as possible.

I believe that everyone - no matter what their wealth or status - should be able to experience the benefits of making beautiful things using their hands and should be able to explore textiles design and craft.

As an artist, I used to create beautiful things for beautiful people. Now, using this website and online community as my portal, I want to create beautiful things with beautiful people.
