The Complete Tyer: The streamside tyer; Sans-vice tying; The spinning knot. * "The following patterns, both traditional and novel, were selected because they gather into a single text a remarkable variety of methods and skills. By blending methods and substituting materials even a greater variety of patterns may be created. Most of the included patterns require only a modicum of skill. And the instructional detail is extensive enough so that even the complex patterns are clear. No tyer should become lost in a maze of methods and materials." .
