The art of knot tying is also experiencing a resurgence in popularity, and “Knots for the Cut” offers simple language and clear original drawings by Helen Gee to guide readers through the basics of rope maintenance and mooring techniques. The book even includes instructions for creating homemade bottle fenders and advanced ropework such as safety ladders, cabin strings, and keyrings utilizing the Star Knot. For those more ambitious, detailed instructions are provided for further advanced knot-tying techniques.
