                      end at the finish of the knot. The Sobre Knot also   under-one style of making the knot and that we may
                      progresses by one bight each time we make a turn    skip one or more bights each time we make a pass
                      around the base. We will use the sobre coding here,   around the knot, until we complete the knot. For
                      which is to say ‘upon’ the manner in which the      this first Pineapple Knot, I have shown the sobre
                      original Turk’s Head is built. The other common     coding, or manner, of making the crossings. Later,
                      expression we see in Pineapple Knots is ‘casa’      in Chapter 10 on Knob Knots, I show the casa
                      coding, which means literally ‘in the house of’ or   coding form, which is perhaps a little more difficult
                      ‘within’. Casa coding, when referring to simple     in cord, because the cord moves, whereas when
                      Turk’s Head Knots, means that it has an over-one,   made in leather strips the leather does not move
