Very good craft book. Many, many valuable tips in this little book. I just started teaching myself to use a kumihimo loom, and found so much more about the craft in this book than an expensive one that I bought initially. Love the clear explanations and illustrations of the different kumihimo braids and the various ways of ending and securing the braids.

Great info however it is exactly the same as the chapter on Kumihimo contained in the book "The Knotting & Braiding Bible: The Complete Guide to Creative Knotting Including Kumihimo, Macrame and Plaiting" so you do not need to purchase this one if you get the other one.

This is a great book. Instructions are easy to follow and she gives you lots of little hints to make your work better.

This is a fairly easy to understand book with some interesting patterns and information on Kumihimo and is a good addition to your craft library if you are into braidingThe e-book version is convenient but not always the easiest to use when you are using your braiding loom at the same time

Although not a completely new kumi-er, this book surpassed my expectations with it's clear explanations and illustrations. Thank you.

Great, very helpful and easy to follow.

Clear and easy to understand.

Very helpful book fiull of lots of information and helpful tricks.
