Maedeup, the traditional Korean art form of knotting silken cords, consists of over 35 intricate knots—with colorful names such as “dragonfly” and “plum blossom”—skillfully made into beautiful ornaments and accessories. In this introductory workshop, learn how to make the dongsimgyeol knot, also known as the “one mind” or “binding two hearts forever” knot since it was used to decorate the letter containing a marriage pledge between the bridegroom's family and bride's family. Variations of this knot and various applications, including bookmarks, pendants, and accessories to cell phones, ipads, or purses, will be demonstrated.
