How to tie the knot
These instructions give more of a way to tie the knot in your hand rather than exact instructions.
Place a loop through behind your hand. This will later form the loop of the finished knot and will not be picked up again until step 3.
||
Place the loop on the hand so that the continuing end is at the bottom.
||
Place the 2nd side of the loop under the previous loop in step 1.
||
Then weave the end over, under, over, under, and over the rope again.
||
The whole thing looks like the 5th picture. The bottom loop is under your hand that there is no mess.
||
Pull the ends through the middle.
||
Tighten nicely
