On page 6... wouldn't you "enquire" rather than "inquire"?
My dictionary has both as valid/alternate spellings.

Not sure if ebooks have new editions or just get updates. Calling it 2.0
Changes include adding the following knots: Water Knot, Carrick Bend, Highwayman's Hitch and Tumble Hitch.
Also added drawings of the Constrictor Knot in the Bight and the Shear Lashing,
+ drawings showing how to join Slings and Recovery Straps and a little info/drawing on Slipped Hitches.
Have also polished the text a little.Link on first post updated to this version.
Let me know what you think. -
Had a quick look through, couldn't see a running bowline, apologies if its in there and I missed it tho
Quite right. No Running Bowline.
In my defence I would like to point out that this is a Knot Booklet as opposed to a Knot Book.
Choices had to be made.

Hi disco2hse,
figures are in sequence and are to be viewed as a natural progression.
If a figure is referenced within the text, it is to draw particular attention to it,
as in Fig.14 which shows the structure of the Waggoner's Hitch more clearly than Fig. 13 (a more traditional Wagonner's Hitch) does.
Thanks for yor comment.

Minor corrections implemented:
Page 6 added the letter “r” to: manufacturer
Page 15 added missing bracket to: (ABoK # 1800)
Page 24 added missing “be” to: allow the rope to be cut
Page 27 added “as does the Figure Eight Loop, (see Fig. 24a and 24b)” to:
the Flemish Bend description.
Please report any typos/errors, they will be corrected

Very interesting.
I see no thief knot ?
The thief knot is more of a curiosity than an actual practical knot.

Hi Everyone,
If you like it please say so, if not, try to be diplomatic.
Please report any typos/errors, they will be corrected.

Hi,
I have been working on a knot book for a while now, just finished it and i would like to share it.
I own a 1975 Range Rover myself, which is how I got into knots, I always carry some rope in the back.
The Booklet is distributed under the Creative Commons License. So no charge.
Not sure in which section to post it.
I attach link so you may have a look.
Regards

A heads up to members, of the booklets existence, as it has dropped off the radar for a while now.
