Better than I expected. Hardcover book. The pages were thicker than I expected, plenty of pictures for illustration and easy to follow along with the written instructions.I have not thoroughly read the entire book yet and I don’t think I will make every project in the book. I did spot one mistake during my first read through. Chapter 13, page 81, instruction 7. The picture shows the correct knot but the written instruction is incorrect. The knot should be tied above the cords, the written instructions says…
Donât waste your money on this book This book is worthless – needed one basic piece of information for making a paracord braclet – how much cord will I need to make a bracelet – this information is nowhere to be found in this book – it would also be helpful to know that if a wrist measures 8 inches an 8 inch braclet will not fit – if all you need is a book of fancy knots this is for youFirst time I have purchased a kindle item and felt absolutely cheated
Great Book!!! A very good book. Easy to follow. A book for the beginners to advanced user. I made my first paracord braclet using your book. Looking forward to making many more. Thank you so much!!!
