How to Tie the Sack Lift Knot - Simple Knot to Lift Sacks

How to Tie the Sack Lift Knot - Simple Knot to Lift Sacks
There may be times when you want to tie a simple knot around the throat of a sack, in order to lift it or hang it out of the way.
@Timothy Smallwood Suggested: "Not having a sack I tried this successfully on a tea towel! I reckon it would also be useful for grabbing the corner of a tarpaulin when making a shelter."
The Sack Lift Knot is so quick and easy to tie. Also by using the this sack lift knot, the throat of the sack is folded, thereby sealing the sack better.

*Remote Release Lift Hitch* have you seen or tried this one yet? th-cam.com/video/4q-WPaCQAZs/w-d-xo.html

Such a treasure u r man, I have made shelves and ~1/5 of my "home infrastructure" at home thanks to your knot videos. Now I wanted to store some soil and I knew whom I should consult! Thanks!

[@KnottingKnots]

Glad to have helped out. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

Thank you for sharing, and reminding me of this knot. I haven't seen a burlap bag in the wild in 50 years tho. Seems a shame. They were so useful to snipe hunters. Wish you well.

[@KnottingKnots]

Snipe Hunter??? What is that?

[@finnmacky7106]

@JohnnyDebt A snipe is an extinct bird, where the term "sniper" came from. But a "snipe hunt" is a term similar to "wild goose chase" but with a more mischievous bent. People used to send kids, or naive young adults, out with a bag to catch snipe. They were a small flighty bird that lived near the beach but even after they were all gone people would still send them out looking for them. It's an American thing, primarily East Coast but I've heard people refer to it all the way through Kentucky, Tennessee and into Texas. Hope that helps. Love your work! Cheers!

@@finnmacky7106 Got it, bit like sending the new boy for a bucket of steam, or a long wait from the stores. You learn something new every day, thanks for sharing.

[@lucassmith2332]

You need to get out more. They are rare but generally at big swap meets you generally find one or two people who are selling them conditions very.

[@KnottingKnots]

@@lucassmith2332 To be honest, took me ages to find some in the UK. Did discover that birdseed is still shipped in bulk with these bags.

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

Oh nice. I will try this at work on Monday. Thanks, Johnny. 🙂👍

[@KnottingKnots]

Let me know how it goes?

[@nauticalknotcraft]

Well done, as always, thank you.

[@KnottingKnots]

I have since been told, it can also be used to hold the corner of say a tarp............

[@nauticalknotcraft]

@@KnottingKnots Sure, it will work for that, no grommet, no problem.

[@Javaman92]

I'd remembered seeing this in a recommended video. I'm just starting my beer brewing journey and I'm going to use the BIAB (brew in a bag) method. This will be PERFECT for using a pulley to lift that heavy sack full of wort up out of my brew kettle!

[@MichaelR58]

Great instructions , thanks for sharing , God bless !

Bloody hell, YES! I will put that in my description...................

I just added your comment to the description, but for some reason I could not get it to link to your channel???

@@KnottingKnots no worries!

[@RobertsBulgaria]

@@KnottingKnots Somehow, I don't see this knot being used to hold the corners of a Tarp, I wouldn't be folding mine over unless in an emergency - what I need is a KNOT that will hold a Pebble pushed into a Tarp from the inside, like a Hangman's noose type of thing. However, I', wondering if this Knot of yours is strong enough to hold the ends of a blanket for Hammock as the usual Knot used is similar, but with at least 5 frapping wraps in it, I guess to stop the material slipping through the rope/cord.

[@KnottingKnots]

@@RobertsBulgaria I am not saying that this one solves your problem, but may be worth having a look at: th-cam.com/video/Jh5sCW9-1EM/w-d-xo.html

[@KnottingKnots]

Good to see you have come back to watch another one of my videos.......... thanks.

[@mstone1567]

An easy way to remember this, it is a Marlin Spike Hitch with the sack woven through it instead of a marlin spike. There are some important details. The hitch would be "face down" and you want to weave the sack through the lifting side of the line first.

[@KnottingKnots]

Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action!

[@surferdude-ll2qu]

Wow!! This is a good 1...👍

[@KnottingKnots]

[@wrongfootmcgee]

there are MUCH easier ways to tie that
its a paperclip knot
but as long as the knowledge is transmitted i suppose it doesn't really matter
kudos on the video, very cozy

Hi Johnny
Where is the best place to order firm lay cordage. I have tried many places on line but so far have not had much luck. It's been macrame or for another word is glorified string. I'm an artist and wish to make sennit frames for some of my paintings.
Thank you for the tutorials
