Knot

Knot Emoji

Activities

Two lengths of rope tied together in a sturdy, overhand-style knot. The design features thick, textured fibers that clearly show how the rope loops and cinches to create a permanent hold.

Usage Context

Used to represent tying the knot in marriage, solving a complicated problem, or feeling caught in a sticky situation. It is the go-to graphic for discussing camping, sailing, or knot-tying skills, often appearing alongside 🧗 when talking about outdoor adventures.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2020, this icon was requested to help users convey the literal act of knot-tying as well as common idioms like 'tying the knot.' It filled a gap in the emoji catalog for outdoor activities and practical tools.
