Publishers Weekly 12/14/22 Macramé artist Strambio ( Macramé for the Modern Home ) shows how to create knotted jewelry in this chic guide. To help beginners get started, she provides instructions for creating basic knots and knotting patterns and offers guidance on choosing types of string, noting that braided string doesn't unravel while suede string's softness makes it ideal for bracelets and necklaces. The 20 projects include such boho-style accessories as a diamond-patterned headband, earrings with unraveled string made to look like feathers, and a necklace made of black tassels tied to a wooden ring. Strambio also shows how to make a white and teal belt, a white camera strap, and a white and terracotta-colored keyring with knots that resemble daisies. Sharing tips of the craft, the author recommends wrapping the end of a string with masking tape to avoid fraying when adding beads (as in her gold-bead bracelet) and using a pet brush to straighten unraveled fringes. Macramé novices will appreciate the simple yet elegant designs, and though the projects are light on visual instruction, the author's directions are easy to follow. Those eager to try macramé would do well to start here. (Jan.) Booklist (American Libary Association) 1/1/23 All hail the 1960s and 1970s for crafty ideas that strike a chord again today. Macramé goes in and out of trendiness quickly, yet there's a mystique in the art of knotting that appeals over the long term. Former interior designer Strambio deftly uses her creative talent to offer 20 projects:mainly necklaces, along with bracelets, earrings, and a few headbands, key rings, and belts. Expect instructions on the basics are provided, from tools and materials to descriptions of adozen or so different knots (two favorites: Endless Falls and Eternity). The projects are easy to conquer, with time estimates at roughly an hour, though level of difficulty is not indicated. Tips help get the tangles out: look for wooden beads with a hole large enough to accommodate the string; keep scraps 15 inches and longer. Interesting factoid: if household allergies suddenly emerge, look out for cotton dust emanating from the string.-- Barbara Jacobs Library Journal Starred Review "Those just beginning to knot and those with experience creating macrame will enjoy this book of 20 projects from UK-based jewelry designer and self-taught macrame and natural dye artist Strambio (Macrame for the Modern Home). Strambio is committed to working with 100 percent recycled cotton string. Beginners will benefit from the knotting tutorials that are accompanied by step-by-step photographs. The book also includes lists for readers who want to use different materials. The projects range from simple bracelets and earrings to the more intricate statement pieces that require crafters to follow a pattern design.. VERDICT Strambio's appreciation for the art of macrame and her encouragement for readers to give knotting a try and let mistakes be part of the unique quality of a hand-crafted piece make this book a celebration of creativity from start to finish"., Publishers Weekly 12/14/22 Macramé artist Strambio ( Macramé for the Modern Home ) shows how to create knotted jewelry in this chic guide.

Synopsis
Create 20 stunning, contemporary macramé jewelry pieces and accessories from bestseller Isabella Strambio. Publishers Weekly: " Macramé artist Strambio (Macramé for the Modern Home) shows how to create knotted jewelry in this chic guide... Those eager to try macramé would do well to start here". Just as macramé homeware has been given a contemporary, stylish makeover in recent years, here we do the same with jewelry. Ideal for beginners - and a perfect addition to the series - this book contains 20 contemporary jewellery projects, including necklaces, pendants, earrings, bracelets and headbands. As in her first book, Isabella is committed to working with 100% recycled cotton string, to ensure that these items can make you feel good, as well as look good. She uses natural dyes to give her projects a delicate and stylish look but, of course, strings of any colour could be used, and using strings of different weights will also give different results. As well as providing 20 wonderful designs, the book will also cover the 5 knots needed in the techniques section. This book is ideal for beginners or people who are keen to give the craft a try, but who might be nervous about committing to a wall hanging and 200m of string at the outset; the projects are achievable yet stylish, and require very little outlay for tools or materials.

The item was marked as delivered on May 27th to a “reception area,” even though I live in a single-family home. Clearly a USPS error. I reached out to the seller, who responded quickly and assured me the book was on the way. It finally arrived safely on June 7th. Not the seller’s fault, and I appreciate their professionalism and communication throughout. Would buy from them again.
