Making Discoveries in Knots : Idiot's Delight... and Savant's Satisfaction
-
"The goal of this booklet is to encourage you to look at knots as simple creations and as discoveries you can make for yourself." - Lin Pardey, Sail, May, 1991.
The joy of true research, without years of study - and on a shoestring! This book has over 140 illustrations describing how to tie the knots you need, including new ones, but it is mainly about a fascinating pastime.
Includes two lengths of cord at the back of the book.
