Synopsis

Designed for quick consultation as well as cover-to-cover learning, this compact manual brings together tips, techniques and practical advice for confident knotting. It covers the essentials of cords, supports and tools, with guidance on choosing cord thickness, colour and construction, alongside support options that can shape the character of a finished piece.

A step-by-step section sets out 35 key knots, braids and patterns with clear, illustrated stages for easy reference. Further chapters explore working in the round, adding beads or stones, introducing new cords when you run short, and finishing touches such as fringing, starching and dyeing. A translation of a popular French title, it suits everyone from complete beginners to experienced crafters looking for a reliable reference.
