First tie a [[cow hitch]] then cross the end over the standing part to form a pretzel. Second step viewing the knot from the side move the end under the knot to the back then through the middle of the [[cow hitch]] to the front. The third step is to tuck the end into the loop forming a [[half-hitch]]. Dress the knot by pulling on all sides evenly. | First tie a [[cow hitch]] then cross the end over the standing part to form a pretzel.
