The Ashley Book of Knots is een encyclopedie van knopen die voor het eerst gepubliceerd werd in 1944 door Clifford Ashley. Het boek was het hoogtepunt van meer dan 11 jaar werk, en bevat circa 7000 illustraties en meer dan 3854 inzendingen van meer dan 2000 verschillende knopen. De vermeldingen bevatten instructies, gebruiksmogelijkheden, en voor sommige knopen de geschiedenis, en zijn ingedeeld naar soort of gebruik.

As a craftsman Maker there are books that get handled again and again...The Ashley Book of Knots is indispensable for it's discourse on the colonial trades and various places where knots were and are still employed. Lifting and rigging are still practiced broadly in industry and these livings traditions keep many of the knots in use. The Clove Hitch and its many names...The Sheet Bend and others are essential 1st principle skills in the traditional crafts...Knowing the knots and their applications marks a transition in a craftsperson's practice and skill.
I watched many apprentice Operating Engineers wash out of programs just because of the inability to tie a simple knot in the right place...The Bowline Knot sends them back to the Labor Gang most often...Easy to add to the library, watch for them used and well worn for just a few dollars. All of my Nieces and Nephews get a copy...
