"Knot Time" is meant to serve as both a learning tool and a field guide for tying knots. Each knot includes a brief description and an instructional video to walk you through how to tie the knot. The videos make it very easy for you to actually see how the knot is tied – much better than some “connect the dots” kind of pictures. This version includes four different categories of knots: general, boating, mountaineering, and fishing. The general category contains 11 basic knots that can be used in a variety of situations including both camping types of activities as well as common uses around the house.

"Knot Time" describes the following 28 knots: alpine butterfly, anchor bend, arbor knot, bowline, bowline on a bight, cleat hitch, clove hitch, double fisherman's bend, double overhand stopper knot, double surgeon's knot, dropper loop, figure 8, figure 8 with a follow through, lark's head, monkey's fist, nail knot, one handed bowline, Prusik knot, rolling hitch, round turn and two half hitches, sheepshank, sheet bend, square knot, surgeon's loop, timber hitch, Trilene knot, trucker's hitch, and water knot. More to come...

DISCLAIMER: Participating in activities that involve ropes is potentially dangerous. The quality of your knots and the ropes themselves should be properly evaluated before attempting any activity where danger is involved. Keeping yourself safe is your own responsibility, not the responsibility of this material.
