Des Pawson's Knoft Craft 2nd Edition is a wonderful collection of "recipes" for making useful and attractive items from rope. Expanded for this edition with seven inspiring new items, the 35 projects range from key fobs, belts, and napkins rings to binocular straps, bellropes, and fenders.
-Each rope work project provides:
1. Step-by-step tying instructions, helped along with clear diagrams and links to other projects.
2. The exact material required, the size and length needed as well as the different knots involved.
3. Fascinating tidbits of nautical history as background to each item.
An illustrated "Tips of the Trade" section presents some handy tools and helpful advice for working with rope. This is certainly not just another knot book -- it's the book that makes all other knot books work!
