Molly makes a book

Last week in the foundation lecture we learned how to make books using this type of binding used and developed by early Christians in Egypt (I think). It was really interesting, because you would never think that you could make a book this way, but then it actually worked out in the end really well, and it made a strong binding. The separate little braids holding the covers together resembled the type of knot made with finger knitting, or crocheting. I thought it was a really interesting experience.
