Beautifully illustrated softcover book with concise instructions. As I am a novice to knotting .... the color photos of easy to understand steps in knotting were greatly appreciated..... and the color photos of completed projects will spark creative knotting for projects of your own. There is a brief chapter of interesting historical background..... and an informative chapter of tools and supplies. She also gives information on how to prepare cords for knotting and dyeing them as well. Suzen Millodot also has authored a similar book on oriental knotting that offers beautiful creative knotting as well.
i was so excited to receive this wonderful book! And, by the way, it did arrive in excellent timing and in excellent condition, thanks to the sender. I love this book because it teaches how to make darling Celtic decorative knots in jewelry that will set one's jewelry apart from the typical metal jewelry that is common today. Also, it helps one to save money and time that go into beaded jewelry. Beaded jewelry is an expensive practice, as beads can be sold in small quantities for expensive prices (lots of beads go into the making of just one necklace!). Celtic knotting itself, is so intricately and fascinatingly beautiful Making knotted jewelry using this knotting technique is more than just eyecandy to its viewers, but is fulfilling in so many ways to the artist herself, allowing her to explore and materialize an INFINITE number of designs and patterns, minimizing the amount of beads needed and empowering women to resurrect the ancient folk crafts which so empowered women(and people,in general) to be self-sufficient and fullfill their creativity! I love the color pictures and instructions! Thanks!Read full review
