Back when I got involved in ML’s rope challenges for the first time, with the rope gag, I also tried some of the earlier challenges she has given us. The current prompt is to take your rope outside, but I am not ready to do that just yet, so decided it’s a great time to share with you my tie attempts from back then.
Tying my leg
The first one I did was also the first prompt for Tie Me Up Tuesday – the leg tie. It was a bit difficult to get the right angle to take an image, but I was quite pleased with what it looked like.
I have to say, after being in the rope for a while, my knee started hurting. In the past years, I’ve been having increasing problems with my knees, to the point where the doctor said I am not allowed to crouch or kneel anymore. My knee was quite thankful when I removed the rope!
Mermaid tie!
The other tie I tried was the mermaid tail, but unfortunately my rope was far too short to complete it. I was happy though that I sort of managed the knots!

Both ties look great. I think that leg tie would’ve hurt me knee too. I hear my knees crackle more often than I like now.
Even though the rope was too short, the mermaid tie is still super eye catching.
Thanks, Sass 🙂
And yes, I know all about crackling knees. They sound terrible when I walk up and down the stairs.
Good work with the rope and that pink colour is fab ☺️
Thanks PS, I need to practice more 🙂
I am glad that you posted these pictures and the pink rope looks great. I have issues with my knees too so although the first one looks good, I think I would also struggle. missy x
I really need not to tie anything again where I strain my knees as I did with these ties 😉
That pink rope is amazing! The mermaid tail does take a lot of rope, but your spacing looks great 🙂
Thank you, I need to do the mermaid one again, with the longer rope we do have 😉
Loving that pink rope Marie … and knots look lovely to me !!!

Thank you, K 🙂 xox
