The traditional folk

art of Chinese

knotting has

spread to every

corner of the

globe, very largely

in response to

Lydia Chen’s first

pioneering book.

Today, both men

and women, young

and old, practice

this ancient craft.

As crafts people,

you should not be

satisfied with a

knowledge of only

a handful of basic

knots. You should,

instead, aim to ex-

tend your knotting

repertoire, devise

your own knots

and incorporate

this elegant art

form into every

aspect of your life.
