Ashley Stopper Knot

                This type of knot has three parts for its rim, and could easily be shaken
                loose when the need for it arises. It is especially made as a stopper for
                boating purposes.

                Instructions:


                      1.  First, create a bight.
                       2.  After creating a bight, have it folded into two loops, and then let the
                          loop pass through the standing end.

                       3.  Let the loop pass through the other loop. Once you have done so,
                          have the end tucked through, and then go and tighten the half knots.
                       4.  Get the tail and pull it tightly until you reach the standing end, and

                          you get to see three separate lobes.
