Really good idea Steve, I enjoy learning new knots plus my son needs to learn some bacic knots and these are clear guide pictures - easy to follow:thumbup1:.

 

I expect some knots have multiple names, I know of a 'packers knot' and a ' hippy hitch'.

 

All I would like to add is to include some notes on on knots,eg, rock climbers refer to the 'figure of 8' as the death knot when used in the wrong situation - it can come undone. plus the simple overhand knot being one sided can run through a karabina, plus some have used two overhand knots, when not too happy.
