Knots and Lashings across the Pacific

Across the vast Pacific, knots and lashings were never merely technical solutions; they were cultural acts charged with meaning. Lashing could be an act of protection, consecration, memory, or obligation. Rope was not simply cordage—it was continuity, lineage, and relationship. Each island culture infused its lashing traditions with metaphors and ceremonies that affirmed social bonds and spiritual meaning.

Knot Galleries

We are actively building out our website and will have new galleries showing our knot decor pieces, but in the meantime, if you see a knot at one of our craft fair or want to commission a knotted piece or wall art, feel free to contact me us at info@pacificknotworks.com
