A figure-of-eight loop tied using the follow-through method. A figure-eight loop is created by doubling the rope into a bight, then tying the standard figure-eight knot.. In climbing, this knot is used to save time when repeatedly attaching the rope to climbing harnesses, using locking carabiners, such as when a group of people are climbing on the same top-rope.
The figure-eight bend knot is used to "splice" together two ropes, not necessarily of equal diameter. This knot is tied starting with a loose figure-eight knot on one rope (the larger-diameter one if unequal), and threading of the other rope's running end through the first figure eight, starting at the first figure-eight's running end and ...

Figure-eight knot of practical knot-tying, with ends joined. In knot theory, a figure-eight knot (also called Listing's knot [1]) is the unique knot with a crossing number of four. This makes it the knot with the third-smallest possible crossing number, after the unknot and the trefoil knot. The figure-eight knot is a prime knot.
A figure-eight descender. The figure 8 belay device is a piece of metal (usually an aluminum alloy) in the shape of an 8 with one large end and one small end.
A double figure-eight loop, (also known as a bunny ears, or a dog eared loop) is a type of knot that forms two parallel loops, and resembles the figure-eight loop. [1]It is frequently used in climbing and caving as an easily untie-able knot that is capable of being attached to two bolts and equalised.
Stafford is coming off a strong season. He led the Rams to a 10-6 record and an NFL divisional-round appearance after completing 65.8% of his passes for 3,762 yards, 20 touchdowns and 8 interceptions.
Tied in the bight, it is made similarly to a figure-of-eight loop but with an extra half-turn before finishing the knot. [1] Also similar to the stevedore loop, the figure-nine loop is generally shown as being based on an intermediate form between the figure-eight knot and the stevedore knot.
