Good evening all,
Tonight, me and Hana had a go at a basic shibari rope technique that we both enjoyed. It’s only a basic hand restriction but allowed me to lead her and tie of the ends to restrict her movement. The knots didn’t have to be so tight but manages to work on giving sensation to the wrist.
I have attached a few images of what I managed to do 🙂
Regards
Hananoki
There are loads on YouTube to follow but this one was – https://youtu.be/LD604h2YytI
Thanks for sharing Hananoki, My Sir and I are also interested in Shibari. Your photos look great. My Sir has downloaded a few different books looking for simple ones. He is particularly interested in chest and crotch ties. We don’t think I’ll be able to manage hand/wrist ties.
Hi Mr C’s Aussie Girl,
It’s really new to us and ive said I would like to work up to body and crotch ropes bit the wrist is okay for Hana and she really enjoyed the tie. I like that they aren’t overly tight as starter ones that would intimidate a starter.
We are looking forward to trying a few new knots and see how it goes.
Nice work Hananoki, you’re on such an exciting journey.
While you’re taking the first few steps you might consider switching to a braided (and really inexpensive) cotton rope. It is stretchy, so if you make the wraps and frictions too tight you’ll not do any harm, and it grips to each other. Your pretty rope looks a bit shiny, which I find usually means slippy!
I’m looking forward to seeing what you create ☺
Hi barefoot, we have used it a few times and although it is quite glossy, it doesn’t seem to slip and also leaves a nice imprint on the skin after without being too tight but will have a look at the cotton ones too. They were our first ropes and bought as trainers more to learn the technique of the knots so will definitely look at the other options.
(Apologies for pouncing on your thread. I get a touch excited when I find people starting on their bondage adventures)
Barefootsub, we enjoyed your input, as we are just beginning as well. My Sir will be happy to listen to any advise.
My Sir has enjoyed creating these wrist cuffs tonight. I can see he is going to be very interested in Shibari especially as he is talented with leather carving and plaiting. The joy on his face, as an artistic man and musician was priceless. Thank you Hananoki for spurring him on.
It looks like you’ve been having Great times with the ropes!
Something I found is, with YouTube videos, you can watch them on half or quarter speed, and tie along with them while you’re trying to get the ties to work in your fingers. Sometimes the tutors whizz through their tutorials and it helps to just slow them down.
Hi barefoot,
This isn’t something I had thought about but very useful thank you. I had the same issue the first few times but on the second try without the video, only had to refer back when I made a mistake. Hoping the column ties are easy enough to grasp without having to refer back too many times.
Very utilitarian. Does the job. I saw on Rory’s YouTube that to make it neater you tie from the top. The coils are facing upwards.
AG wearing my new practice tie. Heart motif Rory self tie. The one from the Duchy is very nice too. More practice needed. Heh heh
cuff. Thank you very much.
