ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Framed knot

Framed knots are like tying a regular knot, except you have a piece of paper or a board and you can move the knot around on it. Think of it like drawing a picture of a knot on a piece of paper, but instead of just looking at it, you can move it all around. This is really helpful for people who like math and science and are studying knot theory. It's like they have a little playground where they can play with knots and study them in a new way.
