Very nice site onejohndog...going to have to have a go myself. Being able to tie knots with names is something I've always wanted to do. It might help me masquerade as not entirely useless

It looks like the Tollesbury Knots resource isn't live anymore. Here's a video knots resource though: https://www.manitouboats.com/blog/knots-yeah-more-knots-with-video/
