5.0 out of 5 stars makes instructions for complex knots very clear, 11 Sep 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Chinese Knotting (Hardcover)
This book was recommended by a friend and she couldn't have been more right. Several knots that I couldn't figure out from the Ashley Book of Knots were made crystal clear by the instructions and diagrams in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring & informative, 4 Dec 2005
This book is well written with very clear diagrams & explanations. Although I have already done some knotting I feel it would be good for beginners too. The format has an American feel, something to do with the layout I think. An excellent companion to Chinese Knots for Beaded Jewellery by Suzen Millodot.
