Bend the end of one
rope into a bight and
hold it securely in the
left hand. Take the end
of the other rope in the
right hand, pass it over
the first rope, and
thread it from below
into the eye formed by
the first rope (1). This
will form two
connected bights at
right angles to each
other (2). Bend the end
of the right eye into
another bight and insert
it into the lower eye (3).
The end of the original
lower bight should now
be inserted into the new
left loop (4). The shape
of the knot begins to
appear (5). Check the
various moves, then
work the ends and the
standing parts to
tighten the knot (6). If
you want to make a
series of these knots,
start with very long
ends and repeat the
above steps.
