  2. Overhand loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhand_loop

    The overhand loop is a simple knot which forms a fixed loop in a rope. Made by tying an overhand knot in the bight , it can be tied anywhere along a rope (does not need any working end ). The knot can be used for attaching clips, hooks, other rope, etc., but has the disadvantage that it is likely to jam tight when the rope has been pulled and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhand_knot_with_draw-loop

    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.

  4. Matthew Walker knot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Walker_knot

    A Matthew Walker knot is tied in a circular bundle of any number of strands. To tie the knot, the tier takes each strand and forms a loop around the rest of the bundle, then passes the end through the newly formed loop to form an overhand knot. They then move to the next strand over, moving around the bundle in the direction they pass the loops.

    Make a loop knot on one end of the rope and another loop knot in the middle, just shorter than the area to be bound. (An overhand loop knot can be used here, but a Butterfly Knot works better because it doesn't jam when strained and it's easy to untie.)
