I came across your knot page. As a longtime (50 years +/-) student of the subject I found it brilliant. I do not understand how all this is done on a computer but it is really wonderful. I hope lots of kids come across the instructions.
This website is awesome! My Dad has been trying to teach me knots for years without success, but I was able to pick up a few basic knots from your site within days. Great job-very helpful!!!
This is the very best instructions on tying knots that I have ever seen. I am an experienced sailor and mountain climber. I have sent your web site address to a number of people and they were all truely amazed !!! GOOD WORK !!
Just wanted to say thanks for the site. I'm leading a den of cub scouts, and flunked "knot tying 101" as a child. Your animated knots helped me understand WHY the knots work the way they do, and I now feel confident it teaching my own youngsters.
Hands down the best site I've ever visted. Well done!
Top site! The best on the 'interweb' as we call it here. I think special emphasis should be made to the 'rolling hitch'. This is THE knot.
