You've found that great armoire and it's on the back of your pickup truck; the only thing left is to secure your load. If your skill with a rope stops at the granny knot, you need to check out this site. Excellent animations and written instructions take you through all the knots you need, sorted into convenient categories including household, boating, climbing and decorative. There is a great section on rope care which shows you how to avoid those useless frayed ends on your rope. With a little practice you will be able to amaze passers-by at IKEA by executing a trucker's hitch using a rope with perfectly whipped and burned ends. So go and get knotted!

 by W. W.(William Wymark) Jacobs Amazon Price: Customer Review: If you're interested in learning how to tie knots, this book has stories instead. It is useless for learning sailor's knots.  by Sophie Kinsella Amazon Price: Customer Review: This is the first time I've ordered used books, so I was hesitant. However, when I received my books, they were in the condition as described and were delivered on time.  by John E. Sherry Amazon Price: $4.95 Customer Review: Handy little tackle item. Great for quick reference to knots for fishing, when your not a memory knotter. Helps keep the hook on the line. Handy ruler also.  by Carley Roney Amazon Price: $12.23 Customer Review: My book came 10 days earlier than the deadline and in excellent condition. I was very pleased with the service that was provided to me and I highly recommend the vendor. Thank You.  by Larry V. Notley Amazon Price: $4.95 Customer Review: This a handy little book, the only dislike is that the pages are not waterproof. Newsfeed display by CaRP |
