Hello all.

This is to advise that I have updated my work on Bowlines.

It have made my work freely available for download in the public domain.

Site: www.paci.com.au then click on ‘public downloads’. Click on ‘knots and knotting concepts’ from the menu.

I would welcome any positive, constructive critique.

I have added considerable content and expanded upon theories postulated by IGKT members such as Dan Lehman, Xarax and Derek Smith. Like any theoretical work - it remains theory and must be tested. I acknowledge that my conclusions on the Carrick loop (“ABoK #1033”) and Karash Double loop (ABoK N/A) may be inaccurate, as I am applying a largely untested theorem. I am sure that others will weigh in and comment…

Hopefully this will spark a revival in Bowline theory and perhaps other knot structures. Perhaps it may warrant adding new material to this thread on Bowlines? [http://igkt.net/sm/index.php?topic=3233.0](http://igkt.net/sm/index.php?topic=3233.0)

Note: Some last minute addenda, correction of typos and changes to images… resulted in VER 2.4a (final uploaded version).
