I can imagine taking this on vacation together with the simple items you need to make these bracelets. There is just one page showing pictures of what you need, and then the basic technique is shown in several easy stages over a few pages. Learn how to position the work, tie the knots and finish off before the fourteen projects that follow. These do not actually feature instructions, but contain a list of what you need and a page sized photograph of the finished piece together with a few hints. How many knots you tie is going to be mostly down to your wrist size and taste, the projects are really just to give you ideas how to develop this simple but very effective method. If you have trouble reading small print this series might not be for you, but the combination of well translated words plus clear photographs makes this book an ideal one to learn this method.
