"Almost all of the projects in this book are based off of the simple cobra knot. In the first chapter, we'll go over how to do the cobra knot and a few other basic things.
All of these braiding projects are fairly easy to do, and the materials are fairly easy to come by. Old backpacks and laptop/camera cases are great places to scrounge side-release buckles and other metal findings. Some craft and general supply stores also sell items like buckles, key rings, clasps, and other assorted items.
This book contains only a few possible things you can do with paracord, it is truly a versatile material. Once you get the hang of it, there is really no limit to what you can come up with."
