In knot theory, a branch of mathematics, a pretzel link is a special kind of link. A pretzel link which is also a knot (i.e. a link with one component) is a pretzel knot.\n\nIn the standard projection of the (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link, there are p1 left-handed crossings in the first tangle, p2 in the second, and, in general, pn in the nth.\n\n\nSome basic results\nThe (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link is a knot iff at least two of the pi are even.\n\nThe (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link is split if at least two of the pi are zero; but the converse is false.\n\nThe ( − p1, − p2,..., − pn) pretzel link is the mirror image of the (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link.\n\nThe (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link is link-equivalent (i.e. homotopy-equivalent in S3) to the (p2,p3,...,pn,p1) pretzel link. Thus, too, the (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link is link-equivalent to the (pk,pk + 1,...,pn,p1,p2,...,pk − 1) pretzel link.\n\nThe (p1,p2,...,pn) pretzel link is link-equivalent to the (pn,pn − 1,...,p2,p1) pretzel link. However, if one orients the links in a canonical way, then these two links have opposite orientations

The Trinity Knot is the symbol of the pagan unity among the Celtic tribes that is the knots in it. And the three points of it is the mother, maiden, and crone.

I don't have first hand knowledge of this but I had to do a similiar project. This is what I found:\n\nAN AFRICAN VALENTINE: THE BEAD CODE OF THE ZULU’S\n\nFinding a spouse is maybe the most difficult thing for people to do. In many traditional societies, marriages were arranged by parents or other elders. Sometimes the young people involved could turn down a marriage they did not want, but other times the couple had no choice at all. Most if not all cultures have kind of symbol system to show whether a person is married or single. In Canada, most common is the use of wedding and engagement rings. Among traditional Mennonites, if a door is painted green, it means there is a daughter eligible for marriage. The Zulu people of southern Africa developed a complex code using coloured beads.\n\nIn Zulu tradition adulthood comes with marriage, and married people have advantages over those who are not. This created a major incentive for young men to gather enough wealth to purchase what was required as marriage goods. Traditional wealth was measured in cattle, and only a man with enough cattle could afford to marry. \n\nYoung girls learned beadwork and the meaning of the symbols and colours used from their older sisters. The beadwork was usually worn as a head or neckband. Men depended on female relatives to explain the code. They can see whether a woman is engaged, married, unmarried, has children or unmarried sisters. The patterns and colours can also tell what region a woman comes from and what her social standing is.\n\nThe one basic geometric shape used for this kind of beadwork is the triangle and a maximum of seven colours. The three corners of the triangle represent the family: mother, father and child. The point of the triangle is facing down is the symbol for an unmarried man or boy, while a triangle with the point facing up is the symbol for an unmarried woman or girl. A married man is symbolised by two triangles joined at the point forming an hourglass shape. A married woman is shown by two triangles joined at the base making a diamond shape. \n\nThe seven colours used are black, blue, yellow, green, pink, red and white. Each colour has two meanings, one positive, and one negative, except white. White has only one meaning, purity and spiritual love. When another colour is used beside white, it takes its positive meaning. For example, a blue band with a band signifies "fidelity" or "faithful". This colour combination is commonly used to show if someone is engaged. Blue, white and black bands are a standard combination to show marriage.\n\nA Zulu valentine, called an Ibheqe, is a narrow beaded band with a rectangular flap that rests in the hollow of the throat when worn around the neck. The flap shows the design made up of triangles in various combinations. One example might be White, Red, and Blue. The red beside the white could be read as "I love you". The blue band in this case, would mean "request", that is asking for answer. Beside the white/red combination, it would ask, "Will you be my valentine?" A boy would use the girl symbol (triangle pointing up).\n\nRed for them means \npostive - promise or high status\nnegative - anger or heartache\n\nHope that fleshes things out a bit...

Do a search on 'binding off" or 'casting off' to see some examples.  You may have to have someone show you, since it is difficult to show in a still photo.  You knit two stitches onto the second needle and then loop the outside stitch over the next one and off the top of the needle.  Then knit another stitch and do it again.  When you reach the end cut the yarn and pull it through the last stitch.\nIt is easy to knit too tight while doing this, so be careful.

The Stren “J” Knot - Perfect for Braid-to-Mono Connection\n\nStren, manufacturer of the most dependable fishing lines in the world, introduces its “J” Knot, the perfect connection when joining a monofilament or fluorocarbon leader to a braided mainline. It also excels when connecting monofilament to monofilament, or monofilament to fluorocarbon.\n\nThe “J” Knot is the creation of David Justice, the R & D Manager for Stren Lines. .\n\nThe “J” Knot is similar in its initial stage to the Surgeon’s Knot, but thereafter goes to an alternating weave on each side of the overhand knot. It is superior to the Surgeon’s Knot because the cutting pressure is taken off the mainline by alternating sides.\n\nSimple directions on how to tie the Stren “J” Knot: For a diagram see: http://www.lyndenhuggins.com/Fishing/Knots/J%20knot.jpg\n\n1. Lay the line and leader alongside each other, overlapping about 12 inches.\n\n2. Treating the two like a single line, tie an overhand knot, pulling the entire leader through the loop.\n\n3. Leave the loop of the overhand knot open, pull the tag ends of both line and leader through the bottom of the overhanging loop, and then through the top again. (For a mono leader to a braid connection, pull the tag ends    through the bottom once again.)\n\n4. Holding both lines and both ends, begin to draw the knot slowly and evenly. If the knot appears to have loose sections after the initial draw down, be sure to pull the loose ends tightly into the knot. Make sure the knot is tight and compact by pulling all ends snugly.\n\n5. Trim ends closely.

I searched many different sources for this, and couldn't come up with anything. I found everything from Masonic cross-stitch patterns to OES sewing kits, but no collar patterns (however, I did find ready-made collars).
