This beautifully produced compendium gives you a knot challenge for every day of the year. With hundreds to choose from, all colour coded by use, you can work through the book from start to finish, gradually building on your knowledge as you go, or alternatively dipping in and out for your daily knotting fix.

Covers:
  • all the essential knots
  • useful hitches, bends, whippings and splices
  • handy knots for making outdoor items: plant hangers, harnesses, tree swings, rope ladder
  • mini knot craft projects: cool keyrings, friendship bracelets, belts, mats
  • magic 'trick' knots: escapology knots, vanishing knots, travelling knots
  • freestyle knots: have a go at the 'thrown bowline' (an old cowboy trick)
  • everyday fashion knots - new ways to tie your shoelaces, scarf, or even your tie!
You won't escape this book without learning something, and you won't put it down without picking up an interesting fact or useful technique. Give it a month and you'll be a knot tying fanatic; give it a year and you'll be a knotting supremo!
