For me, it's the lack of consistent practice in order to retain the knowledge. I rarely tie knots frequently enough to remember how to tie a few, let alone dozens of different kinds of knots. Maybe I need to do more mountain climbing, camping, boating!
- EvanAnderson 6y agoSame here. I retained enough knowledge from my Boy Scout days to know that there are different knots that are useful for different purposes, but aside from tying my shoelaces, a Windsor knot, and an occasional square knot I always have to go back to references.
- ch4s3 6y agoThat's interesting, I feel like I tied the same dozen or so knots for 7 years that I can still tie knots for which I can't remember the names.
- kgilpin 6y agoI spent a few months on Zoom tying knots under the camera. I have busy hands. Now I know quite a few knots by heart.
