Personal Comments by Reviewer

Knots can be a pretty overwhelming thing to take on if you’re inexperienced and even if you do know a knot or two, chances are there are many you still don’t know. What’s incredible is just how handy knot tying can be once you get the hang of it. The app did a great job of walking users through the steps in easy-to-follow instructions. The illustrations were also extremely helpful and I liked that you could flip, swipe, and flick through the steps.
