The Glossary category is for short, clear topics which aim to explain common knotting terms, to explain acronyms, and to provide information about organisations, websites and other ‘inside’ knowledge.

A place for discussions of Knotting related books, book reviews, searches for out-of-print books, and anything else bookish and knotly.

The Events category is for all IGKT events, whether international, national, branch-level, local , or informal.

A category for some of the non-knot, but ‘knotting-adjacent’ canvas work that our community have made. Canvaswork was practiced by many of the same nautical craftspersons who also used knots and knotwork extensively, so they are often seen in similar places. Some may argue it’s distinct from knot tying, but most canvas work incorporates decorative or practical knotwork, and there is limited content online explaining how to do it.
