Book Reviews of The Macrame Book

Book Review: Excellent Book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I LOVE THIS BOOK. I'm a beginner with Macrame and this book just has so many wonderful examples of the art. I can't wait to figure out how to do these pieces. Great examples of how to do certain knots and types of macrame.

Book Review: Excellent book
Summary: 5 Stars

Best book on macrame out there. I really like the donky kong barrel knots. Great pictures and ideas. I'm going to buy a second copy for myself. Slick

Book Review: Excellent book for beginners
Summary: 4 Stars

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.

Book Review: Fun and Informative!
Summary: 5 Stars

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.

Book Review: Great source of info for everyone!
Summary: 5 Stars

The Macrame Book is an excellent source of techniques and ideas for anyone interested in macrame. It provides beginners with a complete source of required materials and lots of step-by-step diagrams of essential knots. Intermediate and advanced macramers (is that a word?) will get lots of ideas for future projects from the dozens of full-color photographs. And there's more than just macrame here; she integrates other materials to create virtual works of art, rather than just a bunch of tacky belts or something!
