Englishman’s loop
The Englishman’s loop is an easily adjustable one. The sliding loop is fixed by adding the last
overhand, against which any load will pull, further tightening the knot.
Start with a loop (1). Pull a bight from the working end through the loop, making the bight the
same size as the loop you need (2). With the remaining working end, make a loop around the
standing part. Feed the working end through the last loop (3, 4), and tighten it by pulling it away
from the large loop (5). Pull the large loop to slide the last overhand up snug to the knot, holding
the loop in place (6).
