A top little book with clear instructions and colour photos of all the basic knots. The only trouble with the book is that as it's so small, it's very difficult to keep the pages open whilst you are trying to tie a new knot.

Perfect for beginners 11 July 2010
By J.P
Format:Paperback
The book literally fits into the palm of your hand. But you'd be surprised how clear the photos are. It's so easy to follow. Before I read this I knew how to tie 2 different knots, 5 hours later, I mastered an extra eight, only 24 left to go!
If I managed to learn this fast then it MUST be a good book.

I bought this book to entertain grandchildren on a long flight - it certainly did that! Do not forget to purchase a few pairs of bootlaces in different colours beforehand.

Knot enough knots!
I bought this thinking it would be an extensive knot reference booklet. My experience with other Collins gem books was great, however this has fallen short of my expectations. Read more

This is a well illustrated but small book; the instructions are clear which is the point! I doubt anyone will have difficulty following them, it is just remembering them afterwards... Read more

Not comprehensive
A small book, with very few knots, and only a couple that would be useful in everyday situations. I'm sure there are hundreds of knots used around the world, it's a shame some of... Read more

Handy
This pocket sized book is a useful little extra, but I'm not sure who it's aimed at. Anyone who uses knots in the outdoors environment will learn all the knots they need before... Read more
