I was inspired to create HBAF by my father's love of climbing and the beautiful ropes he left behind after his death.

My Inspiration

Not wanting to throw the beautiful ropes away, I decided to upcycle them into gifts for friends and family. Mementos of a life well lived. Suddenly I found a creative outlet I enjoyed and was inspired to take the plunge into the world of 'self employment'. I have been in business now for over three years and love what I do. I may have lost my father but I have gained a new lease of life through pursuing my dream.

I have been producing these beautiful pieces for over 9 years now and love every minutes and every piece is unique with the weaving, each piece is made with love and I hope this comes across when you receive your piece/gift My Dad was a avid climber and as such a lot of ropes which sadly after his passing where just sat there and I thought lets see what I can do with Dad’s ropes and hey presto here we are 9.5 years later.

This is quite unique in the UK there are only a handful of people making these by hand, and as such the quality is of a high standard. Everything is made with Paracord weaving and finished with cobra knotting where as the weave on macrame is only square knots so not as strong
