    Macrame Books


    This is a list of Macrame books I've compiled. I'm hoping that they will be a source of inspiration for bracelet making. Knotting originated with Macrame and it's still a relevant craft. Maybe these books can help you to expand your horizons with knotting and add something new and different to your bracelets.


    I have not seen them all so I can't vouch for their contents, but I've looked at the reviews etc. and they appear to be interesting enough. The first book has a one star rating but I don't think that's really deserved. There are quite a few interesting techniques and projects there that are worth a look.
