Synopsis
Here is an entirely different kind of knot book! For the first time, here are step-by-step instructions that take full advantage of color photography to teach the art of tying knots. Unlike illustrations in other books, these pictures show every step looking over the shoulder of the tier - the way you see the knot as you make it. And when two or more ropes are involved, they are color coded so you can clearly tell them apart. Included in addition are a section on decorative knots, a cross-reference list of the many applications of knots, and a detailed glossary. The Morrow Guide to Knots is a reliable and essential reference tool for all sportsmen and campers, homeowners, and youngsters as well., The world's bestselling book on knots. A classic resource. Illustrated, easy to use, and definitive. A full-color guide to mastering seventy useful knots for generations of sailors, fisherman, campers, climbers, homeowners, and all lovers of the outdoors. The Morrow Guide to Knots includes clear, illustrated step-by-step instructions that teach you how to tie dozens of knots, from the swivel hitch and grapevine knot to the knotted sheepshank, the Spanish bowline, and the stopper knot. Each photo captures the way you see the knot as you make it. And when two or more ropes are involved, they are color coded to help you clearly tell them apart. Filled with more than 600 photographs, this convenient, compact guide also includes a section on decorative knots, a cross-reference list of the many applications of knots, and a detailed glossary.

    A rocky start after I had to NUDGE the Seller into checking on my order after MORE than a week with NOTHING happening... But Seller communication was GOOD and the item showed up, well packaged, within the delivery window. Item was well priced, and they had a series that I STRUGGLED to find elsewhere, in NEW condition. I would recommend this seller if you can't find it elsewhere, that's the best I can give them.

    5 stars Great seller—made it right when USPS didn’t. The item was marked as delivered on May 27th to a “reception area,” even though I live in a single-family home. Clearly a USPS error. I reached out to the seller, who responded quickly and assured me the book was on the way. It finally arrived safely on June 7th. Not the seller’s fault, and I appreciate their professionalism and communication throughout. Would buy from them again.

    Great book!

    This book about knots is great! The photos show you how to tie the knot as if you were tying it. I have learned a couple knots already. I got this mainly for the fishing knots info but can see it will be of great use for camping too. I should buy another copy so I can keep it with my camping gear. Very useful & highly recommend it.

  • Small book with good pictures

    Is a good book, good pictures, easy to understand but with small letters that are hard to read at times, otherwise a good buy 😇

  • Needed content in my life.

    I used it the first day I got it on tent tie downs. I know knots for shipping or hauling but not as manny as I should for outdoors stuff. Great book.
