An interesting read. I had problems with the clovehitch and sheep shank in the scouts but managed the simple surgical knots necessary when sewing up the nether regions of ladies after childbirth as a medical student. I’m sure that doesn’t happen now though.

Oh lovely! I’m a knot enthusiast too, I used to make up ways to make bracelets for my friends when I was little, so satisfying.
I didn’t know there was a club – I’ll look out for you and Des 🙂
