Baby steps...untie your knots.
Growing up, I wasn't in the scouts so I never really learned most of these. However, my brother and I, in our youth, were extremely gifted at replicating the famed Gordian knot.

For those of you who want to understand the mechanics of the knots below, allowing you to tie and not be forced to break out a sword to untie the *@&!%# things, you'll appreciate this.
