This is a 1973 book that is both instructional and inspirational. It has many pictures of macrame used in serious art, as well as good discussion of how to do it. Definitely a keeper for my how-to collection.
Even though there are a few pictures of how-to, this book is mostly a display of designs and finished products. Two reasons to buy this book are to enjoy the pictures as one would do with any art and to get inspiration to complete one's own projects. If Macramé is not dated in itself as a skill this book surely is. However, it is still fun to see what you may have missed.
Besides wall hangings, there is a poncho, overskirt, and body jewelry all made from Macramé.
