Great Knot App and Recently Updated
This app has some great illustrations for knots and it finally got updated a few days ago after years of no updates. I emailed Columbia asking for it and then it came out a week later.
Coincidence? Anyways, good app to have and study BEFORE you go outside and need to tie knots.
