Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Packed with the author's exquisite and very detailed drawings of knots and knotting techniques, this book is a treasure trove of knots, hitches, bends, plaits, netting and decorative ropework, all explained clearly and simply to enable the layman to follow in the footsteps of the traditional seamen who have gone before him. The author describes how to tie and use a wide variety of knots, both practical and fancy, from crown and wall knots to turks heads, as well as showing a wide range of decorative ropecraft designs and practical projects from mats, belts, hammocks and rope-edged trays to table lamps, door knockers and cuff links.

Creative Ropecraft is the standard work on the subject of practical and decorative knots and ropework. It is being reissued in a newly designed edition.

Great instuctional book. Fairly easy reading and the best Illustrations since The Ashley book of Knots. The only downside is the "Practical Projects" section. Fairly simple stuff.
