While this is a wonderful crafting book, macrame is not for me. Not only is it a tad too "organic" for me, but the author lost me at cotton dust. My nose doesn't need to be assaulted any more than it already is -- with fire pits, wood stoves, and laundry exhaust blowing in the wind.

That said, this is a lovely book, and despite me not attempting one item, the instructions seem quite clear.

Some of it is cute. But a lot of it uses thicker yarn/rope than I'd probably prefer to wear. They could be adapted somewhat, although not greatly unless you have enough experience with macramé and can add more threads in and know what to do with them if you use smaller materials.
