FOUR BOOKS ON Macramé (and related) Macramé and Other Projects for Knitting Without Needles By Peggy Boehm, Illustrated by Shinzu Matsuda 1963 Gramercy Publishing Co., New York Hardcover & Dust Jacket, 124 pages Creative Macramé Projects With Step-by-Step Instructions For 64 Useful and Attractive Articles By Charles Barnes and David P. Blake 1972 Dover Publications, New York Trade Paperbsck, 256 pages + publisher’s catalogue STRING FIGURES AND HOW TO MAKE THEM A Study of Cat’s-Cradle in Many Lands By Caroline Furness Jayne 1962 Dover Publications, New York Trade Paperbsck, 407 pages + publisher’s catalogue Macramé – Creative Design in Knotting By Dona Z. Meilach 1971 Crown Publishers, New York Trade Paperbsck, 212 pages MACRAME AND OTHER PROJECTS: It’s amazing, the number of novel things you can make out of wool or cotton yarn! By simply knotting a hank or a skein or even a few strands of yarn, you can make hats, hula skirts or beach bags! You can twist wool around a pencil to produce unusual flowers and you can learn to fringe and make tassels – very satisfying accomplishments – and you’ll be able to make all sorts of useful items for yourself, for the house or as gifts. Many items are simple enough for a very young child to make. Most are suitable for school, camp or other groups. Some will inspire even veteran handiworkers, and all are fine for bazaars or other fund-raising activities. CREATIVE MACRAME PROJECTS: This book provides everything you need for contemporary macrame- from the basic knots and techniques to sixty-four projects and patterns you will use again and again. The projects range from large wall hangings and other decorations for your apartment or home, to clothing and accessories with a modern look. Each project is presented three ways- in clear photographs, in coded knotting diagrams, and in written step-by-step instructions. Full materials requirements are listed for each project. STRING FIGURES AND HOW TO MAKE THEM: At some time in your youth, no doubt, you took a loop of string and made a “cat’s-cradle,” a “Jacob’s ladder,” or some other type of figure by looping and crossing the string between the fingers. But perhaps you were not aware that this is actually an ancient form of amusement, that it is practiced in all parts of the globe, and is especially popular among primitive tribes. And you probably didn’t realize what a great variety of figures can be formed by a single loop of string. This book describes, in a simple and easy-to-follow manner, how to make no less than 107 different string figures, just as they are made in their land of origin. It is the only book on the subject in English that gives a thorough and readily understandable treatment, so that a beginner can follow the steps and make the figures without the help of a teacher. The figures offer an excellent means for developing manual dexterity and coordination between brain and hand, and present challenge to personal inventiveness, too, since they are capable of infinite variations. These games are fun for people of all ages: intelligent children can do them easily, and adults find great enjoyment in them. Two people can play the string games together, one using his left and the other his right; and many of the games even require four hands. The description of each figure and the process of making it is accompanied by several simply drawn sketches that show each distinct step as it would be viewed by the person making the figure. The illustrator has taken great care to show in each sketch all the loops, all the inter-twinings as they should appear at each stage in the process, so that there is no reason for anyone to have undue difficulty in making any of the figures. Besides those who simply want to use the book as a source of amusement, the book will be of great interest to anthropologists and collectors of string figures, since it greatly increases the knowledge of string games and their distribution around the world. MACRAME – CREATIVE DESIGN IN KNOTTING: The most complete, definitive book, on a craft gaining amazing popularity throughout the country, provides everything the novice or expert needs to know about one of the world’s oldest and most satisfying art forms. It is clearly written, extensively illustrated and will delight all arts-and-crafts buffs, serious artists, hobbyists, teachers, students, and home decorators. ALL BOOKS are well illustrated and in Very Good+ condition.
