The Paracord Cowboy

Howdy, this is a blog where I try to incorporate my hobby of using paracord into western tack and other useful projects. I use this blog to provide pictures and descriptions of my work in order to show and educate others who enjoy this craft. Even thought I enjoy tying all kinds of knots, this blog is dedicated to tying and creating actual useful items. I get most of my inspiration from my grandpa, Ashley Book of Knots, things around Pinterest, and Stormdrane.
