Illustrated Ropecraft

By following the step-by-step knot
formations described in the previous
chapters, the reader will develop the
skills to apply to forming other knots.
This means that he will be able to
study finished knots and use the skills
he has acquired to form his own steps
toward tying them.
With this in mind, the completed OVERHAND KNOT
knots shown in this chapter have
been chosen for advanced, individual
work. Some knots have been des-
cribed in step-by-step procedures ear-
lier in this book. Others are varia-
tions of established types. All offer an
opportunity to develop individual SHEET BEND
skill in the field of knotcraft.
