Beschreibung

A fresh redesign of the bestselling The Knot Handbook, this book is an old favorite of a classic craft that is now being re-imagined for new and old readers alike.

Some Knots have been chosen for their fame, some for their beauty, and some because they are knots that everyone should know how to tie. This book will introduce readers to time-honoured techniques: an intricate art that has been practiced since before poetry or painting were dreamt of, which can't be mastered in five minutes.
An essential guide to 50 knots and their uses
Clear illustrations with easy-to-follow step-by-step line drawingsAnecdotes reveal the history or fascinating facts about the featured knotsPerfect gift for anyone interested in outdoor living

Über den Autor

George Lewis is the author of several books including Mates for Life and Strange Mates (Ammonite Press) and Castles and Waterfalls (Park Lane Books). He also contributes to newspapers, magazines, encyclopaedias and partworks. Lewis learned about knots in the 1950s from herring fishermen on his ancestral Isle of Man. Pupil and teachers have long gone their separate ways: the former, like most Manxmen, to the British mainland through economic necessity; the latter into the history books after the Irish Sea was trawled to near exhaustion. Lewis retains the traditional knowledge and here demonstrates that knots can give us so much more than the means to catch the traditional accompaniment to chips.
