Here are a few examples of knot work that I have made. There are a few notes on each item.

A turk's head woggle made in 2mm synthetic cord. It is a 4 lead 3 bight turk's head tied around a 24mm diameter former then removed and the ends of the cord fixed inside with glue.

Bead Puzzle Bead Puzzle

This an old puzzle that appears in many forms. It can be made any convienent size, the only important dimension is the diameter of the large hole. This must be too small for the beads to pass through. The problem is to move one of the beads so that both beads end up on one loop as shown in the second picture. This has to be done without untieing the knots in the ends of the string or cutting the string.
