Method
Form two equal side loops by
folding down a bight (1).
Holding the bight closed with
the left hand form a third loop
beneath them with the right
hand by moving the end and
the standing part upwards in
a counterclockwise direction
(2). Still holding the base of
the bight take the right side
loop and turn it downwards
(3.4). Take the left side loop
over the folded right loop (5)
and insert it through the
bottom loop (6). Pull both
right and left loops to tighten
the knot, taking care that both
loops are equal (7). If they are
not loosen the knot a little and
pull the end of the smaller
loop.
