Today 20 years ago (Sept.1st, 2003)
Everyday's picture...two-thirds of the year has been through.

There have been the varieties of men's longyi knots in Yangon.

毎日の写真情報、途切れることなく一年の2/3が過ぎました。

男性のロンジー、その結び目もいくつかのパターンがあるようです(ヤンゴン)

And here's a short showing how to double stack a Trucker's hitch for additional mechanical advantage (poor man's pulley) when you need to get things really tight.

This popped up on the social accounts today.

Guess I should have a practice tying this on a handkerchief, since I’ve not been invested yet.

I’ve noticed, on the TV, in newspapers, social media, etc, that there are , both young people & adult uniformed volunteers, who either don’t use woggles or use & .

I’m asking all of you who wear a , what do you do & what’s your reasoning?

I haven't posted this in awhile, but if you like games and birds and math, I made a birb math deck - files are here:

If you know of a better way to print these - let me know or go for it.

So I made a Ditty Bag. Always wanted to so now I have.

Slider made from a 5 lead 4 bight turks head knot. Once drawn up it's coated in shellac to keep it firm. Slides up and down the 6 strands of the handle to open and close the bag.

7/7

So I made a Ditty Bag. Always wanted to so now I have.

Each of the 6 grommets has a cord eye spliced through it. Splices are finished with a crowned Matthew Walker knot.

Top of the handle is a Matthew Walker, 6 strand sennet then a diamond knot.

Made extensive use of my Swedish fid to get the the eye splices tied. Working in 1mm flax was fiddly.

6/7

Here's a cool knot for tying up bundles, like the mattress topper I'm putting in storage today. Be sure to skip the first 2:38 and everything after 3:38. (This guy likes to talk.)

If you want to tie a knot almost impossible to untie - take any headset, put it in a pocket, walk around with it for approx 15 minutes and voila!

Making progress on my first Ditty Bag. All seams are stitched, grommets have been added. Now working on the lanyard. While not the worst Matthew Walker knot I've ever tied, it is only the third, so quite pleased with the outcome.

Very happy with the lanyard cord as well. I made 3x3m lengths hard laid from 3 strands of 1mm flax. Turns out that it's nice to work with.

This video is such a good tutorial on the rolling hitch, both how to tie it and what it's used for.
