How many people do you know who are that reliable? • Step 1: Make Q shape • Cross the end of the rope over the top of the remaining rope, making a Q shape. • Step 2: Thread tail • Pass a short portion of the end of the rope, or the tail of the Q, through the loop from behind (and back along the remaining rope). Thread it loosely, leaving behind a new large, loose loop to the right of your Q. • Step 3: Pass short portion • Pass the short portion of the end around the back of the remaining rope. • Step 4: Pass short portion again • Bring the short portion of the end back up and once again pass it through the small loop (your initial Q ), this time from the front. • Step 5: Cinch knot closed • Cinch the knot closed, and use the resulting loop to secure your bow. • Did You Know? • The Bowline is also called the King of Knots—a version of it exists in every sea-faring culture in the world.
