  • Chinese Knotting
    Chinese Knotting Standards/Benchmarks: Compare and contrast visual forms of expression found throughout different regions and cultures of the world. Discuss the role and function of art objects (e.g., furniture, tableware, jewelry and pottery) within cultures. Analyze and demonstrate the stylistic characteristics of culturally representative artworks. Connect a variety of contemporary art forms, media and styles to their cultural, historical and social origins. Describe ways in which language, stories, folktales, music and artistic creations serve as expressions of culture and influence the behavior of people living in a particular culture. Rationale: I teach a small group self-contained Emotionally Disturbed class. This class has 9- 12 grade students. This lesson could easily be used with a larger group or with lower grade levels. I would teach this lesson to expose my students to a part of Chinese culture. I want my students to learn about art forms they may have never learned about before. Also, I want them to have an appreciation for the work that goes into making objects and to realize that art can become something functional and sellable. Teacher Materials Needed: Pictures and/or examples of objects that contain Chinese knots. Copies of Origin and History of knotting for each student. Instructions for each student on how to do each knot. Cord ( ½ centimeter thick, not too rigid or pliable, cotton or hemp) in varying colors. Beads, pendants and other trinkets to decorate knots. Tweezers to help pull cord through cramped knots. Cardboard or corkboard piece for each student to help lay out knot patterns. Scissors Push pins to anchor cord onto the cardboard/corkboard.

  • 1 Perhaps That's Just the Way It Is the Square Knot Is a Binding Knot Used
    Perhaps That’s Just the Way It Is The square knot is a binding knot used to connect two ropes of equal width. This is how I got to know and treasure it in my ten years working on a rescue team for Technisches Hilfswerk. Captain John Smith might well have added around 1627 that the square knot, if applied incorrectly, can easily loosen, and become a “grief knot.” He called it a “reef knot.” One of the special characteristics of the square knot is that it can be so easily loosened, and a seaman can make use of this when “reefing” a sail by tying off the excess cloth with a reef knot. Nautical knots often have this dual function of being both powerful form-locked or friction-fit connections and at the same time easy to undo: when taking a boat through a lock, I use a special knot called a slipknot. The form of the nautical knot thus depends primarily on its function. Everything is reduced to the last detail of complete functionality. This is reminiscent of the famous design principle “form follows function,” which can be traced back to the architects Louis Sullivan and Henri Labrouste and is often associated with the Bauhaus. As artist and seaman Clifford Ashley wrote in his 1944 encyclopedia on the subject of knotting, knots have strikingly little sense of patriotism.1 But sailors are not the only ones to make use of knots. In Frankfurt during the mid-1990s, I saw a poster picturing a Chinese knot, and it captured my fascination.
