Animated Knot-Tying

This is undoubtedly the best way to learn knots and their tying. View a fast or slow animation of each knot or step through the process at your own leisure. Grogono demonstrates both rope and webbing knots and hitches. The illustrations are dramatically clear, and color is used to advantage. The search and rescue section includes 14 knots, including the Trucker’s Hitch, my personal nemesis. Perhaps I’ll finally master it.

While you’re at the site, look at the 17 climbing knots. You may be interested in reading the review on Kevin Kelly’s site.
