Customer Reviews

Not just for Boy Scout merit badges!

I never thought you could create so many attractive designs with a piece of string and variations on a single knot. Hensel has created an easy-to-follow guide to creating knotwork wall hangings and other artwork using nothing but rope, ingenuity, and a bit of patience.Although some of the designs in the book are a bit dated (I honestly don't know anyone who would wear the tie-clip or women's jewelry featured in the book), the techniques are useful and easily mastered.A terrific book for those looking for a new hobby.
