Customer Reviews

Beautiful knotted pieces for the advanced "knotter"...

This book is more for the "advanced knotter" and not for the beginner. However, the pictures show some of the most gorgeous knotted pieces that a person will ever see & therefore may be worth purchasing for this alone. Even though this book is too advanced for me, I still love it because the projects are so inspiring, and they have gotten me to take a few "jewelry knotting classes". Not only are the photos amazing, but also the color combinations chosen by the author are wonderful!

Different techniques

This book offers good design ideas and different techniques than other "macrame" books. Only issue I had with it was there was no reference to the specific brands of thread used in the book (and I can't find anything like the yarn that was used on the front cover).
