Want to learn some magic? Of course you do! Join conjurer Ryan Oakes as he shows you how to perform the Vanishing Knot!

handkerchief

SOMETIMES WE USE MATERIALS THAT REQUIRE ADULT SUPERVISION…LIKE SCISSORS SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY AROUND WHENEVER YOU DO MAGIC TRICKS!!

  1. Roll the handkerchief tightly. Hold four inches of the handkerchief in your right hand between your first and second fingers. Close your third and forth finger around the rest of the handkerchief and hold it against the palm of your hand.
  2. Now, make an 'X' with the handkerchief by bringing the other end up between your second and third fingers, holding it with your thumb. Now, reach in through the loop you’ve created with your left hand and grab the end being held between your first and second fingers.
  3. Pull it through the loop at the same time you tighten the grip of your third and fourth fingers. This will make a small bunch of the silk get trapped in the loop and it will look like a knot.
  4. Hold the handkerchief up and show the “knot”. To make it vanish, simply pull the ends of the handkerchief and the knot will disappear!
