This knot can be used to provide a toe hold in the middle of a rope; to make an emergency bosun's chair; [5] [6] and to create an upper rope "block" to make a crude purchase by threading the rope round an anchor point and then back up through the loop.
Many methods have been devised to tie the fiador knot, [7] including fixtures used to hold the parts in shape while tying. [4] [8] More recent sources have shown a simpler method of forming the fiador knot using a flat precursor knot. [9] [10] [11] The following images show a method for tying the fiador knot:

The discovery of all possible ways to tie a tie depends on a mathematical formulation of the act of tying a tie. In their papers (which are technical) and book (which is for a lay audience, apart from an appendix), the authors show that necktie knots are equivalent to persistent random walks on a triangular lattice, with some constraints on how the walks begin and end.
There is a potential with beginners to wrongly tie the bowline. This faulty knot stems from an incorrect first step while tying the rabbit hole.
