i love this book. i’m currently working on 3 projects at the same time using various sizes of cords–havent’ finished one yet but i had to write this review because i think this book is just beautiful. i didn’t see that it was japanese when i ordered it which to me is a HUGE bonus because i adore craft books from japan. they’re some of the most beautiful books i own and this one is just like it. i was thrilled when it came in. there’s absolutely no translation issues either which is another huge plus. it was created by some kind of huge nation-wise macrame society of japan so seems to be an authentic authority. i knew absolutely nothing about macrame but this book seems to cover it all–both small-scale jewelry pieces (sennets) and then what i was interested in–larger-scale “panels” for wall-hangings or bags, etc. lots of patterns, tons of different knots, clear directions and its beautiful to boot. so often you get a craft book and you have to imagine all the examples but with better or more interesting aesthetics? not here. the people who did this have excellent taste (i think) so its inspiring, too. i really, really love it.

this is a great book especially for a beginner like me..the only thing i didn’t like about the book is the separation of the photos for the projects and the instructions because of that i keep on scanning the book and wasting my time looking for the certain projects and how the project supposed to look like.

This 2013 translated book gives lots of examples of patterns to create your own products. I create micro-macrame jewelry pieces, and it just gives a little extra to boost my creativity. I highly recommend this for beginners as well as experienced knotters.
