SLIPPED                            (half a meter), double it, and insert
    FIGURE-EIGHT                       this loop into the upper loop of the
                                       knot (4).
    The loop is useful when you want to
    hang or add another rope to the
    knot. In this case, the figure-eight
    knot must be fairly tight to hold the
    item hooked.
    Method
    Allow an end of about half a yard
