Knots are so useful and once you know a good collection of them, you'd be surprised how often you actually use them in applications. These are two of the easy to remember ones. I wanted to start off with two of the most widely used as they will be the best to remember if you don't know any knots at all.
Lol they wanted to get fancy, well that was their downfall because the fancy knots are the ones you get taught.
Thanks Andres, I hope you practice these and have them under your belt, good skill to have even if you don't use them often.
Thanks you Emma for reminding me of knots. I'll try to practice on some pieces of rope o have throw somewhere between my tools. It might even help me understand how to make a proper knot to secure my rope for adjusting bindings and purflings on instruments. That's usually a problem.
Anyhow, that memory gets me each time. People pretending to get fancy and failing is one of those pleasures of life to watch. 😂
