Detail of Macramé door curtain

This cotton door curtain was created using the Macramé technique, a form of knitting. Using knots, skills and techniques used to create fishing nets and hunter's bags, Alda Bugeja creates a rich variety of items such as clothes. Macramé is one of the oldest known techniques of working wool, with evidence suggesting it was used in pre-historic times. Alda has been perfecting this Maltese technique for 50 years.
