Description
Tying knots is one of the most fundamental outdoor skills, useful in everything from building shelters to fishing and trapping. This handbook combines simple, straightforward instructions with easy-to-follow illustrations for beginning knot-tiers of all ages. Learn about different types of rope and their uses, plus how to make your own cordage from natural materials.
Follow the illustrated directions to tie over thirty different kinds of knots—from a figure eight to a monkey fist. Then use them to build simple projects for all abilities: a lasso, cooking tripod, shelter, and more.

Cora C, Reviewer
This is such a helpful book. The knots are broken out into logical sections (Knots that slide, knots that stop, knots that tie rope to rope, etc.), step-by-step instructions with corresponding illustrations make it easy to follow along, and what each knots is used for. I also really enjoyed the sections on knots projects (to apply all the knots we just learned), and making cordage.
Overall a really great book and one I highly recommend for anyone looking to learn or expand their knowledge on practical knots and ropework.
A special thank you to Storey Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC. All opinions are my own.
