If you have been thinking about including a rope or handkerchief effect in your routine, this is the one. Here is why: This classic magic trick is popular for several reasons. It's easy for spectators to understand, easy to perform, and captivating. The effect works well in noisy or dimly lit environments. If you're only doing the first two phases, the reset is instant. Involving the spectator in tying the knots adds an interactive element. It's an excellent choice for table-hopping, and the handkerchiefs take up little pocket space.
The new approach focuses on the relationship between the magician and the spectator, making the spectator the star in Phase 2. The optional final phase includes a dramatic story about a near-death rock-climbing experience due to tying the wrong type of knot.
Thirty crystal-clear photographs make learning the knot-tying techniques effortless. Also included is a short 80-second video showing how to tie and release a square knot. This is an effect you'll add to your repertoire.
