  Get roped into knotting with this innovative guide to the fascinating art of macrame which is packed with fresh, clever new ideas for accessories, jewellery, gifts and items for the home. A fully illustrated section, showing the knots and their construction in detail, is followed by nineteen inspiring projects - some quick and easy, others more challenging. For novice knotters there are simple items to make - dinner mats, napkin rings or book marks. Veteran knotters will rediscover the joys of creating lacy and textured fibre structures - rugs, bags, bands and jewellery. Many different materials can be used: cotton, wool, silk, sisal, pliable and precious metal wires. Why knot get going! Learn about texture, colour and pattern. Make a bold, graphically patterned spectacles case, a shimmering beaded bracelet, a soft suede belt and much, much more.
