The Art of Braiding, Basics - Revised Edition

The Art of Braiding, The Basics - Revised Edition

The Art Braiding, The Basics was originally written before I taught braiding. Through the years of teaching, many of the same questions and areas of confusion became apparent. In this Revised Edition, I have addressed those areas resulting in new rules and hints for clarification. Projects designed to use these skills have also been added. The Revised Edition is a must for both beginners as well as one who already braids. 

 
 

Each chapter is revised.

NEW-A detailed chapter on cutting strings from a kangaroo hide.
NEW-Color enhancement of original diagrams indicating clearly the direction a string must pass through a knot.
NEW-Complete projects using skills learned in the book.
NEW-Added basic skills.
NEW-Hints and rules to aid in learning.
