About this product

Product Information

Knotting, or the joining of two cords to form symmetrical patterns, is an old and revered art form in China and an integral part of Chinese life. Since ancient times, Chinese knots have been used for a variety of practical and decorative purposes. In this book, author Lydia Chen focuses on the use of Chinese knots as fashion accessories - hair ornaments, earrings, necklaces, pendants, brooches, belts, bracelets and anklets--and as accents on clothing. Detailed instructions, clear diagrams, and beautiful colour photographs of the creative use of these decorative knots and the variety of materials that can be used combine to make this book both attractive and useful and a source of inspiration for craftspeople everywhere.
