How To Tie A Crown And Diamond Knot (ABoK  

I was a boy scout and learned some knots (not as beautiful as this one). I met a pretty woman at party at a ski club, she was into boats, im a guitar builder. long story short, we went out for a ski a few days later and when we came back I tied the boat to the peer with a bowline...she was very impressed. Married 15 years now with 3 lovely kids. I swear it was the bowline that did the trick. Thanks Lord Baden Powell

Well done, I have spent half the morning on a competitors site and couldn't manage this simple knot. First time through with you and voila.

I grew up learning Ashley's book of knots, but always had trouble with the crown unless I tied it different than the illustration! Your video is awesome, so easy to follow!

Bingo! Found this way much easier for me than the “new way.” Thanks 😊

すごくわかりやすい説明に感動しています。ダイアモンドknotは色々な場面で使えるのでいつかは覚えたい一つだったので助かりました🎉ありがとうございました🙇

My hat’s off to you-I’ve been struggling to get this right and everything looked like a dog’s breakfast until your very clear instructions.

Wow.. so much Simpler than many other tutorials out there..!! Thanks 👍

Great demo.... I finally get the crown knot.

That’s an awesome way of doing it. Great job!!! Thank you!

That helps. I struggled with the ABOK diagram.

Hola no hablo inglés,pero tus videos no lo necesitan,ya que los pasos los haces muy detallados,muchas gracias me encantan tus creaciones.un saludo

Beautiful Knot. Thanks for the easy to follow video.

Thank you, I was having trouble with this knot and I got it first go with your tutorial. I find lots of your videos easy to follow, regards Sue

Thanks for sharing, I needed a new lanyard knot

Cheers , thanks so much ..

Your videos are fantastic! you make the most difficult knots understandable. Many Thanks! Keep up the Great work.

Thank you that made it much easier

Love it, great demonstration! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing !

Nice video! Never realized what an art exists for knot tying. And I thought I was good at it in Boy Scouts when I learned the 'Sheep Shank'...though I would never trust it for climbing.

Thanks for video ,great

so nicely done!

Beautiful Knots. Incredible how smart and fun these things are. So many really smart intelligent people, and soooooooooo much suffering in the world. It doesn't fit together at all.

I'm thinking this might be interesting made in two colors. Has anyone done that?

A great one!! Thanks!!

If you pull on the two diagonals before you set the knot it makes the shape of a propeller.

Thanks. Good video.... .. stay safe

Nice. Thank you.

Muy bueno gracias.

I don't have knot..

Wow I actually got it. surprising

WOW! You made it plain to see. Thank you!

Knots exist for a reason. You showed how to tie a knot in two free pieces of string, which is fine if you want to teach someone how to teach someone else how to tie a knot but it is not a practical method for a knot that is in use. What would be useful is to show how to tie the not with a loop and only two free ends, and then to do again choosing an alternative pair of ends, that is having the free ends emerge in different positions in the knot.

ABoK Errors... Arrrrrrggggghhhhh!
