Square Knots and Sheepshanks

A piece of rope is like a Swiss Army knife. Without the spoon.

But only if you know your knots.

Otherwise it’s just oversized dental floss.  Or a jump rope.

Grog’s Animated Knots is a hookup for tons of knot beta.

That square knot you see above?

Knowing how to tie it is one requirement for the Pioneering merit badge, one of the many  you can earn at the Merit Badge Midway during the 2013 National Scout Jamboree.
