Shake Them Away

This is a more deliberate version of
the "G<YD:o Knots," done in one,
hand style. The right hand makes a
hypnotic pass as the left hand shakes
the rope and the knots evaporate.
The trick is done as follows: Pro-
ceed as with the "G<YD:o Knots" until
the left fingers obtain their hold on
the right end of the rope. Then tum
the left hand completely over, so it is
knuckles downward. Let the coils
slide from the hand as you sha.ke the
rope and the trick is done.
Again, be sure that the knots are
not drawn too tightly, as they must
shake away easily. This has a very
mysterious effect.
