Cat's Cradle: A Book of String Figures

... Show More
This classic activity book includes traditional Cat's Cradle techniques and bonus instructions to show you how to make string figures like Jacob's Ladder, The Eiffel Tower, and Witch's Broom. With the clearest directions around and a tie-dyed loop of string to go with them, all you need is your fingers. We were the original Cat's Cradle book with string, and, with more than 4 million copies in print, we've still got it all tied up. Contains a multi-colored string. Color of the string varies.

One of my favorite past times with two of my friends when they came over to my house. The tea cup was probably the easiest for me to do.

This library book appears to have had a shoelace string attached at one time (punch-holes in the cover). The main attribute is the hardboard pages and hold-open spine so one person can do the games by onesself. The clear high-color illustrations reveal red sections of the string, which shows the next piece of string to be picked up. It is laid out in 1-2-3 style, and shows two colors of hands for the games for 2 people.
