The Complete Book of Knots and Ropework by Eric C Fry
Usually the difficulty in learning to tie knots is that the demonstrator is facing you and the procedure is therefore being shown back-to-front. In this title, the reader can see the bights and tucks of each stage of each knot as if he or she were tying it, making the entire process explicitly clear. The book demonstrates, stage-by-stage and in 323 photographs, the tying of 95 knots for both practical and decorative uses: hitches, plaits, bends, rope and wire splices, sennits and decorative ropework mats, covering all the basics that yachtsmen or other outdoor sports enthusiasts need to be families with, and at the same time acknowledging the artistry of the Turk's Head, crown knots and ocean mats.| SKU | Unavailable |
