Q: Can I use the Macrame Cord Size Calculator to change from 3-ply rope to single strand string in a macrame pattern?

A: No. Let me explain.

The Macrame Cord Size Calculator only works if you're using the same TYPE of cord but in a different size.

For instance, you CAN use it to estimate the cord length if you want to switch from 3mm single strand cotton string to 7mm single strand cotton string.

**But you CAN'T use it to switch from 4mm 3-ply rope to 5mm single strand cotton string.**

3-ply rope is harder than single strand cotton string, and therefore it uses more rope for each knot, even if both types of cord are the same size.

Also, some 3-ply rope is harder than others.

If you're trying to swap out a super soft 3mm 3-ply rope for a hard 5mm 3-ply rope, this calculator won't be able to give you a good estimation.

Stick with the same type and hardness of cord and you'll be in good shape.

It can be any type of cord (single strand string, 2 or 3 ply rope, braided cord, etc.) as long as they're both the same TYPE and HARDNESS level.

Also, keep in mind that the same type of cord from two different shops may differ in hardness.
