I ordered the encyclopdiea of Rope magic by Percy Abbott. I have never done any rope magic before but as a childrens entertainer, I though it would be good to know a few. I have yet to recieve the book, What are the "Classic" rope tricks that I should learn?

Thanks in advance

Too start out with you should learn a cut & restored routine.
The book you ordered is one of the all time great books on rope magic, you will enjoy it.

On Daryl's Fooler Doolers volume three DVD you'll find "Three to One Ropes" (Martin Lewis, Daryl). I use this routine in all my kid shows, very easy to do and the kids go crazy when the wrong knot falls off the rope.

Sounds like a cool effect, Jessie! I tend to do comedy magic more that anything else. It sounds like a great effect. I'll look for that one!

There are a lot to learn from what you ordered.

You could learn the Bachelor's Needle, Chefalo Knot, Magic Shoe Lace and many more.

Ton's of stuff the last volume has "Daryl's Rope Routine" which is priceless.
