Show-How Guides: 20 Essential Knots Everyone Should Know

My dad promised his 7 year-old granddaughter "anything she wanted" for her birthday. Uh oh. They came back with an 80 foot length of rope and had fun with it for the rest of the week. I will always love them - and LOVE ROPE - for that. You don't need 80 feet to learn from this book; a short piece or a sturdy shoe string will do. This slim primer covers 20 essential knots (grouped by their style: hitches, binds, bends, stoppers, and loops) and lists a few of their many uses. Every single step is fully illustrated by author/artist Keith Zoo. These hands-on skills can be applied to fort-building, sailing, camping, tree swing-making, light bondage, and keeping your hands busy during long Zoom meetings.
