STOPPER KNOTS
Triple Overhand Knot
This next knot in the multiple overhand series is tied similarly to the
Double Overhand, but with three passes through the loop instead of
two. When tied this way, it also has the belly-and-spine appearance you
see in step 1.
1 Tying this knot, you follow the steps described in the Double
Overhead Knot, adding an extra loop at the end.
2 When you pull on both ends to tighten the knot, the belly will wrap
around the spine, giving the knot its final barrel shape when fully
tightened.
