PARACORD 101
Beginners Guide to Paracord Techniques and Projects with Pictorial Project Guide on Bracelets, Keychains, Monkey Fist, Belts, Lanyards, and other Ropecrafting Projects
The development of parachute rope occurred during World War II as a result of a silk scarcity following the attack on Pearl Harbor. Nylon was developed a few years ago and, as a strong, lightweight, and uniform synthetic material, it was a suitable substitute for silk, resulting in the development of parachute rope, now known as paracord.
Due to paracord's superior tensile strength, soldiers and sailors learned that it could be used for more than just shroud lines, and it quickly became a staple utility item for all branches of the military. As a form of contemporary "trench art," paracord is incorporated into a variety of utilitarian goods and accessories. The most popular items are bracelets, which are given as gifts or mailed home to loved ones.
Civilians wear these gift bracelets to demonstrate their solidarity with military friends and family. Due to the success of these bracelets, paracord was produced in an array of vibrant colors, combinations, and sizes. You can't afford missing a copy of this book; get your copy today!
