Book Reviews of The Macrame Book
Book Review: If you are looking for plant hanger patterns, this book is not for you.
Summary: 3 Stars
This books is great if you are looking to make wall hangings or jewelry, but not if you are looking for plant hangers. The pages of how to do a knot are spread throughout the book instead of in one section, making it hard for the beginner to find a specific knot. If you are experienced in macrame, this book is for you.Book Review: Outstanding book

Summary: 5 Stars
I have been doing Macramé for quite some time and recently I have started to teach it as well. I own a number of Macramé 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.Book Review: The best modern macrame book yet!
Summary: 5 Stars
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. :)Book Review: Very comprehensive overview of different knots
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
