DAY 211: Get knotted

30 Mar

I’M in a shithouse mood today, so it’s a fitting time to learn now to tie murderous knots; like, not the kind of knots you learn in Brownies – unless Brown Owl’s got some explaining to do.

1. Slip knot
For: A gallows
Also: Knitting

Slip knot. I don’t have any actual rope – what kind of a freak do you think I am?


2. Honda knot
For: Lassoing
Also: That’s it, really

Honda knot.


3. Double constrictor knot
For: Tying hogs
Also: Improvised cable tie

Double constrictor. That remote's not going anywhere.

 

Keeper? I dunno. Found lots of ‘knot games’ websites for Scouts. Might leave them to it.
