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.
Both knots are identical and are composed of a slipped overhand knot, where a bight allows the knot to be released by pulling on an end; the working end for a slip knot, and the standing end for a running knot. The slip knot is used as a starting point for crochet and knitting. The slip knot is a stopper knot that may be spilled or slipped ...
Then another turn is made around both parts and a bight is pulled through the last wrap (2, 3) for the slipped version (left image), or just the end for the non-slipped version (right image). The knot needs to be pulled tight to actually grip (the slack is pulled out of the windings and the knot pulled tight at C and D).
Form an overhand noose, or simply tie an overhand knot around the standing part as shown. Tighten the overhand portion of the knot around the standing part. Thread the working part through the loop. First close the noose on the working part by pulling on the standing part, then remove any remaining slack in the knot by pulling on the working part.
Bring the long, working end to the top of the knot; Pass the working end behind the standing line in the knot and feed the end through the Eight; After the working end has been threaded through the knot, pull the knot tight; Adjust the size of the loop by alternately pulling the different ends or one side of the loop
As a midline loop knot made with a bight, it is related to several other similar knots, including the alpine butterfly knot and artillery loop. If pulled with one hand holding one end, the other hand holding the start side of the loop that is the continuation of the same end, [clarification needed] before tightening the knot of the loop, it may ...
A slipped half hitch [1] [2] is a knot in which the weight of the load the rope carries depresses the loop sufficiently to keep it in place until the load item is placed in its location. When no longer required the free end may be pulled and draw the loop through and so release the load.
