Thank you for a complete lesson. I remember learning this knot from my mother when I was about ten and she started by teaching me the wrong way so I'd never be satisfied by the knowledge, as every knot would never hold and slip right out. Learning the right way held in my mind then because these knots never slipped. The difference is subtle, but pronounced once you learn them.
Thank you, that is exactly the knot I needed. I went to your blog to see it better. The first 2 times I tried, it did not work. But the 3rd time it worked perfectly. The knot even passed through a needle after I cut the excess threads.
Your tutorial for a weaver's knot is excellent. It is so easy to understand and more importantly, remember! The only suggestion I could offer is that you confuse things by showing the "wrong way". Just focus on the right way. I've subscribed because I'm also interested in repairing some 100 year old family book treasures. Thank you Sherif.
i don't see any difference between the right and wrong methods -- looks like same knot made both times. The words in red "Wrong method" obscure the demonstration. The string/thread doesn't stay in focus.
blytheluv the difference is in which threads are pulled to tighten. The new thread is still put through the slip knot the same way in both “wrong” and “correct” demonstrations. However, the threads to pull to tighten are very different!
It's hard to see which end you are pulling tight. Maybe if the background were a plain color and your hands stayed a fixed distance from the camera? Thanks! I would like to learn to make the Weaver's Knot but I'm having trouble finding a good video to help me.
you are not teaching me a thing because you go far too fast and i dont get it. i cant even slow it down. remember you are trying to teach us something.

Please, do it again but with different colors of threads. In this video it sees the same colors and don't have sense the knot.
Thanks for your comment. Have a look at this blog

Yeah me too I was going to write the same thing. Both of them just looked the same.
