Advanced Knot Tying - Mar/Apr 2020
Organizer: lyndon
Duration: Mar 22 to Apr 18, 2020
Instructions:
Welcome!
Supplies:
- Medium-length cord - at least 6'
- Longer cord - perhaps 16' or more
- Short cord (optional)
- String or very thin cord
Complicated knots are often partly made up of simple knots. Have a look at Figure 1, 2 and 3. You will see these patterns in more complicated knots. It is common to hear people referencing the names of these patterns when explaining how to do a new knot so it is worth remembering them.
I've also included the "Gang of Five" knots we learned in the first knot tying program if you want to keep practicing those so that you never forget those essential knots.
You are allowed to miss 8 practices. On your 9th you will be automatically removed.
