So you equate practicing nautical arts with summer camp? Ummmm...okay. I


learned how to tie a bowline in summer camp -- guess that makes them passe.-



Hi:

passe............. never! I just get a bit rufled when some Mac26
driver scoffs at macrome and other fun kid/summer camp activities as
"kiddy stuff" or "girly stuff" Mending web (fishing net fixing)
consists of about four very basic knots common to knitting. Look at
macrome and ya got lots of square and granny knots. Then there is all
the half hitches that make great plant hangers. The world is full of
knots that most dont recognize as "He Man sailor stuff."

Knots are tools... And they can take some beautful forms.
