There are three books I use often:

BSA's "Knots and how to tie them"
Scouts Canada Cook on Knots
and
The Ashley Book of Knots_
by Clifford W. Ashley
Doubleday & Co.
Garden City, NY
c. 1944. 619pp
7000 drawings representing over
3900 knots
ISBN 0-385-04025-3
listed for $18.95

The Ashley book of knots is great for advanced and decorative knots.

Yours in Scouting,
