This page is currently under construction... Still trying to "tie" everything together for this page.
I haven't really decided what to do here yet. Knot tying has been an interest of mine since I was a young boy in Scouting. I'm one of those people that once I learn a knot, it sticks with me...I don't need to practice it every day to remember how it was done. Look at one of my other webpages..Rope Rescue...hmmm, bet there's knots to be learned. Nothing upsets me more than to watch "rope rescue" personnel struggle with a knot, or pull a picture of a knot (or rigging) out of their pocket to show them how to do it.....there's only a couple of knots that you really need to know, SO KNOW THEM WELL....'nuff said!.
I've include a few neat links and a couple of pictures, hopefully you'll discover how interesting, and practical, knot tying can be.
Just for starters....This is a
small "microme" dragonfly that I'm making. These are about 2 inches
long. I have them on a thin wire (to put in a flowerpot...makes it look like
it's flying), with a pin to wear as jewelry, and with a magnet, for the
refridgerator, etc. The picture doesn't do it justice...the cordage is a bright
metallic green/blue, actually looks pretty lifelike.
