This book is jam packed with ways you can use a simple

ball of string and make it into something beautiful

and practical.

There are crafty makes (coiling &  knotting), 

crochet and knitting projects

so every type of crafter will have something 

to make from this book.

The 16 varied projects make things for

around the house to make some beautiful pieces

to making yourself a fantastic purse.

The 16 projects are split into sections;

The Kitchen

The Office

The Porch

The Bathroom

All of the basics are explained for every type

of craft, this includes knitting & crocheting.

All of the instructions are split into

easy to understand steps and there are

photo's for each of these steps.

It's a brilliant book for learning the basics

of crochet and knitting

and make some projects with the things

you have learned.

All of the projects are practical and very stylish.

You will be amazed what you can create with

a ball of string.

Different types of string are used in the 

projects from chunky sash cord to

soft cotton braid.

The book starts with beautiful pictures

of the things you can make.

The book has a hessian look which

really goes with the theme.

A lot of effort has been put into the design

of the book to match the designs

of the projects.

The patterns are versatile and very easy to follow.

I've already ordered in some supplies and can't

wait to get started.

I'm making some of the projects for presents

for family and friends.

Brilliant book and who knew you could

do so much with a ball of string.
