               Knot lore

               The  knot  researcher  and  prolific  innovator  Harry  Asher  discovered  this  knot
               while extrapolating all possible permutations of the common sheet bend. It first

               appeared in A New System of Knotting (1986) and was later published in The
               Alternative Knot Book (1989).
