THE EVER YTHING KNOTS BOOK
Honda Knot
Also called the Lariat Knot and the Bowstring Knot, this knot can be
used to make an especially small loop because it is circular instead of
oval, like most loops.
1 Tie an Overhand Knot, then lead the running end back through it,
finishing with another Overhand Knot at the tip. Then tighten down
the first Overhand Knot. The second Overhand locks the loop.
2 If a running loop is desired, the Honda Knot itself can be tied
around its standing part.
