All this is done openly and above~
board. Now comes the simple but
unnoticed move that produces the
climax. As your right hand places the
finaiioop, you dip the right thumb
and forefinger through all three. loops
and grip the left end of the rope(fig.3).
BrinR that end back through the
loops, draw it clear, and give the ropt
a fling with the right hand, retaining
the end which you have gripped (fig. 4).
That action will form the knots
along the rope. Don't be stingy with
the loops; make them ample and the
trick i.!J sure.
