This book is incredibly basic. The basic technique instructions are very vague. For example: in the technique showing paper made from plant material, no ratios are given for plant material to washing soda or water. For such a basic book, you should be expecting people to have no idea what these ratios are, and give a starting point. By contrast, the author spent much time elaborating on projects that could be done with finished handmade paper. The projects were not terribly open-ended, and I did not feel inspired by the example projects.
