Will work for beginners, some tools required for ease.
Nice layout and illustrations to follow. Good beginnings for me. The tools required would be nice perhaps being shown in the description with the book would be nice. Not necessary though. Now to get busy and enjoy a new hobby.

Good project ideas, but more sparkle than content.
Pros: There is some interesting history and background information helpful to the novice. The projects are useful with nice color photos. Cons: Instructions are not very clear. Often, the author gives several instructions in the text while referring to only one picture, which can be rather confusing. Knot instruction illustrations are not in step-by-step form; rather, the knot is laid out and there are arrows drawn in the photo, which are difficult to follow. I found myself looking for online videos in order to tie the knots, then returning to the book to finish the project. Summary: This is a nice book to add to a paracord library if you can get it on sale, but not a good stand-alone project book for the beginner. Also a bit light-weight considering the $10 list price.

This will challenge your skill abilities.
Since I received this, I've perused it several time, and have to admit, that while the instructions are fairly good, it does appear to be difficult to be able to make most of the items without having 3 sets of hands. I'm one who doesn't like something to beat me, so I'll probably prevail and succeed in the end, and probably purchase some of the tools that are recommended in the book. I do wish that there was a chart that showed how much para-cord (lengthwise) is needed for different sizes of the projects, like bracelets, necklaces, key holders, lanyards, etc. I'd hate to waste paracord, by coming up short and having to re-evaluate what size I need, that find something to use the short piece for. If I over estimate the length, I end up with the same problem of having to cut off the extra, and hope it's lone enough to still be usable, instead of scrap.
