Get ready to Join Ryan Oaks and his lovely assistant as they reveal a trick that will tie you up in knots! Grab a rope and some slight of hand and you will be performing dazzling your friends in no time!

A length of rope at least 4 feet long

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. Start with the length of rope in your hands. Stretch it from hand to hand and hold it in your fingertips to show your audience that it’s just one, long rope.
  2. Hold the end of the rope with your left hand. Grab it about eight inches down from the end with your right hand.
  3. With your right palm facing up and your thumb pointing right, take the rope in your right hand and bring it to your left hand. As you do this, twist your right hand ninety degrees to make a loop in the rope.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have gathered the entire rope into loops. Now you should have your rope gathered up into a set of rings in your left hand. The number of rings you made will dictate how many knots you’ll make. For example, if you made five rings with the rope, you’ll be able to make 5 knots.
  5. Place your bundled rope onto the table. Discreetly bring the original end you were holding up through the loops as you do this.
  6. Wave your hands over the loops of rope and then quickly lift the rope up off the table. Bring the protruding end up through the loops as you do this to create the knots. Your audience will think they magically appeared!
