My online Moby Dick book club's reading for the week starts with Chapter 47, "The Mat Maker", which opens with Queequeg and Ishmael working on sword mats. Since on the nerd Venn diagram I sit at the intersection of "in an online Moby Dick book club" *and* "a member of the International Guild of Knot Tyers"", I decided to tie an example of a sword mat (which is the flat part of this assembly; the ring at the end is technically a simple ringbolt hitch.)

A small knot practice area and instructional card at Museum Spakenburg. Because I know quite a few knots, this is always an interesting view into a language I don't speak. Since there was a length of rope that was otherwise unoccupied I left them a small Turk's head. In English, clockwise from top, these would be a bowline, a fisherman's knot, a figure eight stopper, a square knot (aka a reef knot), and a sheet bend.

A small lanyard for to hold my badge at this weekend's International Guild of Knot Tyers-North America annual meeting at the New Bedford Whaling Museum. Relatively simple as these things go, just something I could complete in an evening.
