Synopsis
Today knots are still needed in everyday life, from tying up parcels to hitching a horse. If you're a camper, climber, fisher, or sailor this book is for you. Featuring step-by-step guides to over 100 knots, each illustrated with specially commissioned illustrations, it teaches the novice the basics and the more experienced some knots they might be unfamiliar with. Covered are stopper knots, binding knots, bends, hitches, loops, plaits and splices. Following a short historical introduction, a section looks at specialist equipment that might be needed and gives a glossary of terms. Basic techniques are then discussed before the main body of the book. Here, after a section that looks at general knots that can be used for a wide variety of purposes, the remainder of the book is broken down by activity - fishing, sailing, climbing, and camping and shows with color illustrations, with pointers and caption text how best to tie each one., Since the first hunters tied a piece of fint to a stick, knots have been integral to human development. Today, we use knots on a daily basis, from tying our shoelaces to tying up packages, and while most people can get away with knowing how to tie only the most basic knots, expanding your knotting skills can be both useful and fun. If you enjoy outdoor recreation, then knowing how to tie a good knot is essential -- and could be lifesaving. This useful and satisfying skill can be practiced anywhere and at any time with just a length of cord. This book will give you a basic knowledge of the knots you need for camping, climbing, fishing, and boating, as well as a good selection for general use. Learn how to fix a fishing hook to a line, lash up a bundle of tent poles, keep the boat from drifting away while you go ashore, rig an emergency mast, and what to do with your shoelaces when you're hanging over a cliff. Specially commissioned step-by-step artwork alongside the author's instructions demonstrates clearly how to tie 100 different knots, while a short introduction to each knot tells exactly what it can be used for. Book jacket., Knots are needed to tie up parcels and hitch a horse, and for camping, fishing, climbing, and sailing. Featuring easy-to-follow guides to over 100 knots, each illustrated with specially commissioned photographs, Knots teaches everything from the basics to more unfamiliar knots. Each section looks at specialty equipment and their related knots and gives a glossary of terms with pointers on how best to tie each one. Over 700 color illustrations are included.
