I’ve entered into the mesmerizing world of ropes & knots! And now spending too much time and money at Tents & Trails staring and purchasing multi-colored climbing ropes. Take time and drool with me. I’m attempting the Turk’s Head knot today after mastering the Double Carrick knot yesterday. Check out Grog’s Animated Knots for helpful tutorials. My knot journey started with the hand lettered book, KNOTS – useful & ornamental by George Russell Shaw.
