Dryad Leaflet No. 127 is a short instruction booklet on decorative cord knotting and macramé-style string work by E. Mary Macdonald of Dorset House School of Occupational Therapy. It gives step-by-step directions, with diagrams, for eight knots and plaits: buttonhole, finger knitting, four in hand, half hitch, nine or seven plait, round plait, Solomon's knot and square sennate. It ends with instructions for four knotted belts (A to D) attached to buckles, with notes on string lengths, colour arrangements and uses such as bag handles, dog leads and belts.
