Components of Knots

                To get you started, here are the various components of knots:

                       1.  Bight. Bights are the slack, curved sections of the knots. They are
                          also known to be the loops found near the ends of the rope, yarn, or

                          string.

                 2.    Loop. Loops are just like bights—but are narrower and have two
                    separate ends.
