5 out of 5 stars The best modern macrame book yet!   February 7, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

As soon as I opened the cover I knew this book was perfect. On the front and back inside covers there are the pictures and how-tos for every knot for quick reference. It's full of great works of art for inspiration and easy in depth instructions for each knot later in the book. It is definitely what I was looking for and then some. I highly recommend it. :)


5 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive overview of different knots   July 12, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

The expanded illustrations of knots are very clear, and the art gallery and the examples are inspiring. I particularly liked the suggestions for combining macrame with other techniques.


5 out of 5 stars Fun and Informative!   July 28, 2005
 7 out of 8 found this review helpful

I really enjoyed this book on macrame. I learned a lot and find that many of the techniques which I had thought were difficult are really quite easy once you get the hang of it. My sister and I go through this book together and have a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in this hobby.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent book for beginners   July 5, 2005

Yes, this book is an excellent basic book, for people who are just knitting their first knots, which in this book are clearly explained, drawings included. So beginners, this is an ideal book. The book also offers instructions for some projects (not instructions for all of them), which could be inspiring. However, I think these projects belong to traditional art (folk art, I mean); they are not fashionable. Perhaps the challenge is to create up-to-date clothes from the basic knots.


5 out of 5 stars The Best   November 14, 2003

I have been doing Macrame for quite some time and recently I have started to teach it as well. I own a number of Macrame books and I still think this is the best book for beginners to start out with. The illustrations for how to tie the knots are the best that I have seen and there are hundreds of ideas for projects.
