As soon as I opened this lovely book, I felt the desire to take a piece of string and start practicing. The cable the author uses is a lovely cable. My string is a washline!! Yet, I did use the book for my washline. I bought a new pulley and a hook and a ring. I cut my hanging line, put my new pulley, tied "professional" knots from the book, so now I can hide my wash line, instead of leaving in the open all the time, and take it out when necessary. The knots are solid and fun to work with. What a very useful book! You will love practising those knots, and it may be useful to know these in your near future even if only to wrap a parcel.Full mark for presentation, for ;lovely step-by-step photos, for good colours and good sound explanations and easy to follow instructions.
Colourful and easy to understand
Well worth buying this book. A practical guide with lots of colour pictures of detail steps and completed kots. The guide is comprehensive and have 70 different knots, from utility knots, fisherman knots and beautiful decorative knots. I would recommend this to anyone, from a knot hobbiest to a serious outdoor adventurer.
Good selection of usefull and decrotive knots - easy inst.
The book has a large selection of knots for both practical and decorative applications. The instructions and illustrations are excellent showing all the steps to produce each knot.
