How the Shelf Score was applied

The Shelf Score weighs fit for the reader, contents and edition, value, and the listed reading age or level where one is given. None of the picks lists a reading age or grade level, so the level score is zero for every pick in this list. How we pick explains the weights.

Scores run from 9.2 to 9.8: each book’s point total is placed on that range, so more points always means a higher score. Reading age or level counts on a list where at least one listing gives one, and a book whose listing gives none then scores zero on it. Where no listing gives one, the score is taken over the other 85 points. Books carry no warranty, so warranty is not scored.

How to choose the best christmas macrame books

Check fit for Christmas first

Macrame Christmas by Strambio is the closest fit by title, with festive projects in the title itself, while the Macrame Kit by MIGO Creates is a macrame kit whose gift wording includes Christmas among other occasions. The Book Ornament by NELXI is Christmas themed but is an ornament, not a macrame project book, so it suits a gift shelf rather than a making shelf. For other maker titles, browse all nonfiction lists before deciding which kind of pick fits the reader.

Read title-only picks with care

Macrame Christmas by Strambio and Easy Macrame Kit by Ewparts are known here only by title, with no page count, format or description stated beyond the title, so check the listing for those details before buying. A title that promises easy knotting techniques still leaves format, length and contents unstated, and a kit title still leaves the supply list unstated. For similar hobby titles, browse self-improvement books and compare what each listing actually states.

Match the format to the maker

A kit suits a beginner who wants cord and supplies with the book, while a standalone title suits a maker who already has cord. An ornament suits a book lover who wants a decoration, not a project.

Before you buy

• Check whether the listing is a book, a kit with a book, or an ornament, and confirm the format before buying.
• Check whether the listing states a page count, a project count and a supply list, especially for title-only picks.
• Compare any listed reading age or grade level with the reader, and read the description for themes before buying for a younger maker.

FAQ for readers
