Knotting Challenge

Knot tying skills are not only for survival needs, but also everyday use. The right knots, and of course the right types of rope, can save you from height or water, when in the wild. You may be able to get that heavy box up the staircases, or simply fasten your shoelaces, safe and sound, if you learn how to knot!
