You may be thinking of macrame.
Hemp is the material used (from the very fibrous Hemp plant), and Macrame is type of textile-making (style) using knot-tying instead of weaving or knitting. So you COULD use hemp fibers to decoratively knot macrame items.

Macrame involves tying cords or ropes into knots in order to form a specific artistic shape. You can get started by looping your cord around a base, such as a wooden rod or metal ring, and then tying knots in a downward motion from this anchor.
