Description
With an emphasis on practicality, The Practical Knot Pack features 50 essential knots for every occasion-whether you need chunky knots for mooring a yacht or creating a makeshift ladder, or more humble but equally useful knots for attaching car keys or fishing hooks.
Following on from the popular Knot Pack, The Practical Knot Pack picks up from where the first finished and blazes its own unique trail. Featuring an illustrated, easy-to-follow, step-by-step instruction book that shows you how to tie 50 indispensable knots, the pack also contains a neat pack of waterproof cards focusing on the Top Ten most practical knots, and two lengths of rope in contrasting colours to help you master a wide variety of practical knots from bends, hitches, and loops to lashings and stoppers. Take a useful and enjoyable lesson in knot-tying: everything you need is in the box.
