Horsemen have knotted ropes into halters for centuries. Know
how? Try these how-to books for making rope tied halters:
- How to Make a Rope Halter for Cattle, Horses, Sheep, and Other Forms of Livestock, by Oregon State University Extension Services
- Halter Tying Made Simple, by Columbia Basin
- Step By Step: How to Tie a Basic Rope Horse Training Halter (Step-By-Step Natural Horsemanship), by Kari Newman
- How to make an adjustable rope halter and tie useful knots, by Virginia Cooperative Extension
- Halter-tying success: A step-by-step guide to making hand-tied, rope halters for horses, by Diane Longanecker
Of course, plenty of equine pros remind horse lovers to remove rope halters for turnout or stabling.

Oh, I like those! I love tying different knots anyway. They are useful in so many ways.
