  • The Matthew Walker is a decorative knot common in the world of nautical knot craft. As is the case with so many knots it had it's beginnings as a decorative yet functional knot when it was used as a stopper knot in ships rigging.
    I hope my video is easy to follow please let me know what you think. I'll follow this with a few more videos till I get to the fancy globe at the end of the Bell Rope. Good luck with your knotting.
    You can find the cord I use at bloodknot.bigcartel.com

    I really appreciate your teaching style! Clearly explained and described - your dialog matches your video! and no frivolous chat.
    " That's all a Matthew Walker knot is - a series of over hand knots..." Brilliant.

    Thank you for an excellent tutorial. You have made everything so clear and now I can see where I have been going wrong.

    I like the calm way how you explain your knots and projects. Almost hypnotic, but always highly motivating. 👍🏻

      Thanks mate. Photography has died a death so I’ve got time on my side. 🤷‍♂️

    Amazing strands! Precise result, simple and informative instructions. Even knowing this knot (though did not do that "handbehind" trick) I had a pleasure to watch hands at knotworking! ;) Thank you for sharing!

    I think it was a suggestion to go the other direction, not specifically the two movements.

    This knot has plagued me for a year, I kept coming back to your tutorials, the 6/10 strand, finally it fell into place.

      It’s one of the most satisfying knots to master. Bravo

    Great tutorial and well explained what type of rope did you use for this knot as I noticed it held its shape well whilst you were tying it the rope that I have been using doesn’t seem as ridged once again thanks great tutorial

      It’s just cotton cord but it’s “hard laid” which describes the way it’s made. I make it myself and occasionally sell it. Currently I have none for sale I’m afraid. If you google Mikko Snellman you should be able to get some. His cord is beautiful, he’s a master craftsmen and knotter.

    What did you use for the constrictor knot and what is the name of the braid you started off with?

      I would like to see how he started it off too.

    I tried 10 strands with bailing twine, not recommended and impossible.
    Thanks for the 6 strand, will try this with some rope I have.

    • @plemas

      Bailing twine would be really hard. Kudos for trying. Cord with good structure will make your tying easier
