What is something like a hobby or skill that you belive almost anybody should give a try, and what makes your suggestion so good compared to other things?

i feel like this is a descent question i guess.

    You know I’ve often wanted to learn more knot tying options, especially when I’m doing things around the garden. I’ll have to take your advice and learn some!

    Do you have an recommendations of which ones to learn or resources?

      Someone else here mentioned AnimatedKnots.com and I second that recommendation. For gardening, I’d learn the bowline and the trucker’s hitch. The Trucker’s Hitch is what I use to cinch a bundle of cut branches together with twine. You can get it really tight and it’s really dead simple. You can also use it anywhere you want to stretch a line and have it not sag. I’ve used it to lash things to the roof of a car, too.
