| The Bowline is one of the most
useful knots in the world. You can create a loop at the end of a rope
that won't get tighter or looser. (bigger or smaller) |
|
| Create a large loop and then a
small loop. The large loop is the loop you will use to hold onto your
work/pipe/rigging. The small loop is for the knot. |
 |
| Take the rope end and place up through the small loop. |
 |
| Place the end around the long line. |
 |
| The end goes back through the small lope. |
 |
| Grasp all the parts and tighten. |
 |
| The finished knot. |
 |
| One of the best things about a
Bowline knot is that you can almost always loosen it. The easiest way
is pull this loop down along the long line. |
 |
| Like so. Then the rest of the know will come out. |
