STRING FIGURES AND HOW TO MAKE THEM













String Figures and How to Make Them

A Study of Cat's-Cradle in Many Lands

by Caroline Furness Jayne



This great history/sociology/game book is in like new condition with only a tad of shelf wear.

''At some time in your youth, no doubt, you took a loop of string and made a ''cat's-cradle,'' a ''Jacob's ladder,'' or some other type of figure by looping and crossing the string between the fingers.

But perhaps you were not aware that this is actually an ancient form of amusement, that it is practiced in all parts of the globe, and is especially popular among primitive tribes.

And you probably didn't realize what a great variety of figures can be formed by a simple loop of string.''
