Full-color resource with photos and illustrations, starting with the Basic Left Knot, Basic Right Knot, and Stripes. Patterns include chevrons, woven stripes, zig-zags, single and double waves, braids, French knots with variations, and diamond variations. There are instructions on how to end bracelets, and how to make headbands, coin purses, keychains, and barrettes. My almost 9-yo learned some new patterns.
