Best Of CLE: Knot Co.'s Macrame Keychains

Whether it’s your kid’s college dorm or your boho-chic living room, macrame is here to stay when it comes to adding a little texture and a lot of fashion to virtually any space. But if you want to take the trendy look on the go, Gypsy Knot Co.’s macrame keychain is an on-point way to keep your keys and key tags fashionably organized.

Owner Meghan Ramsdell started her business in 2020 after she started making macrame pieces — think wall ornaments and plant hangers — as a hobby. “I had a whole room filled with a bunch of stuff I made and my husband was like, ‘Do you want to do anything with this stuff? Maybe you should sell it,’ ” says Ramsdell. The key chains ($12) have a built-in wrist strap to carry your keys hands-free and are made of hand-knotted recycled cotton. Choose from muted shades of pale blue, mustard, olive and tan for a modern spin on a retro favorite.

“I like finding ways to kind of update macrame from the ’70s style and bring it into today.”etsy.com/shop/gypsyknotco
