To latch on to a ring, bar, or any other support with a bowline knot, rather than
creating a half hitch in the left hand, it can be done in a more free-form way.
1 and 2 - Begin by tying a half hitch in the standing end, working end passing over.
Then transfer this half hitch to pass over the standing end.
This is achieved by pulling on the working end at the same time that you push the A-shaped standing
end in the opposite direction.
