Bookbinding Knots: Square, Kettle, Weavers Knot // Adventures in Bookbinding

Bookbinders use three basic #knots for most of their work. The square knot joins the first two section together. Of course it has heaps of other uses. The kettle stitch connects all the other sections together after the first two. Finally the weavers knot is used to add thread once you run out.

These videos are only possible thanks to the support of Patreons, and if you are able, your support would be greatly appreciated.

The #DASBookbinding Channel is the perfect starting point for learning #bookbinding. It covers foundation skills, simple projects, technical methods, materials and more advanced bookbinding projects. The videos are presented in a tutorial or lesson fashion, which I hope are easy to follow. The knowledge presented is based on traditional techniques which can be used to create traditional books or as a foundation to quality journalling or creative artists' books. The best way to find what you are looking for is the DAS Bookbinding YouTube Channel guide.
