Knots and related subjects

I have been focusing most of my efforts towards knotting articles. The quality of these articles is uneven and much work remains to be done. Please consider helping with the Wikipedia Knots project. I have written some proposed guidelines for knotting articles there. My plans and todo list (somewhat stale) can be found here. I am a member of the International Guild of Knot Tyers.

Well-referenced knotting articles:

• Alpine butterfly knot
• Bottle sling
• Buntline hitch
• Carrick bend
• Constrictor knot
• Fiador knot
• Reef knot
• Rolling hitch
• Taut-line hitch
