Create a loop in the rope. Then pull a bight of the working part through the loop, creating an overhand noose knot. Pull another bight of the working part through the loop of the previous stitch. Tighten the stitch to the desired degree by pulling on both sides of the loop. Adjust the loop by pulling on the working end to keep it a reasonable size.

The knot is tied in the same way the original bowline is, except with a doubled rope (using a bight). An overhand loop is formed in the rope, the working end is passed back through that loop, behind the standing part of the rope, back through the loop and pulled tight.
The instructions on how to create a slippery eight loop is as follows: Begin by creating a figure eight knot with one end long enough to be looped through it again; Make sure that the figure eight loop is not tight, but rather quite loose with obvious gaps; Bring the long, working end to the top of the knot
