365 Days of Knot Tying Challenges

Nic Compton’s colourful compendium of 365 knot challenges explores essential, decorative and trick knots, with projects for sailors, makers and outdoor enthusiasts.

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 your knowledge as you go, or dip in and out for your daily knotting fix.

It covers:

All the essential knots
Useful hitches, bends, whippings and splices
Handy knots for making outdoor items – plant hangers, harnesses, tree swings, rope ladders
Mini knot craft projects – keyrings, friendship bracelets, belts, mats
Magic ‘trick’ knots – escapology, vanishing and travelling knots
Freestyle knots – including the ‘thrown bowline’, an old cowboy trick
Everyday fashion knots – creative ways to tie shoelaces, scarves or ties

You won’t escape this book without learning something new, and you won’t put it down without picking up an interesting fact or technique. Give it a month and you’ll be a knot-tying fanatic; give it a year and you’ll be a knotting supremo.
