Beautiful photos! Complete, easy to follow directions.

This is the best book on straw weaving I've found so far. It includes photos and drawings of every technique. I have had no trouble following any of the instructions. Each project contains a short piece of folklore that pertains to the piece. The pictures are so beautiful, it also makes a good coffee table book.
