N.Y. Yankee Posted August 30, 2022 Posted August 30, 2022 An animated knot popped up on my Facebook the other day. I only got a glimpse of it and haven't seen it again. Knots are a hobby of mine and so I wanted to learn it but I don't know the name to look it up. Pass a doubled line through the eye and bring the hook through the loop then snug up the loop on top of the hook eye. With the tag end, do several half-hitches up the line. Then there was a finishing hitch above that but I could not really see it, then the add quit. Do you know this knot? Quote
Super User Choporoz Posted August 30, 2022 Super User Posted August 30, 2022 No clue what it is called. But I do know that if it was in my Feed, unless it came from one of about ten or twelve specific people, I am almost NEVER better off for having paused to take a closer look 2 Quote
Super User MN Fisher Posted August 30, 2022 Super User Posted August 30, 2022 Sounds like an easy knot to tie - but not very secure. I'll stick with my M-K knot, thank you. Quote

Thanks for the suggestion but I really wasnt looking for advice or suggestions on what knot to use or to tell you what to use, simply trying to identify something I had seen and wanted to learn about it. Team9nine figured it out for me. I'm done now, Cheers! Quote
