1. Tie a standard Bowline (opposite), leaving a longer working end than usual. Make an underhand crossing
turn around the working-end leg of the loop.
2. Bring the working end forward, and pass it through the crossing turn from front to back to form an
Overhand Knot. Hold the standing part of the rope above the Bowline, and pull the Overhand Knot down
and tighten.
Untying: Untie the Overhand Knot, then pull the bight up along the standing
part to free the working end from the crossing turn.
