O J's Loop Announcement.txt

Hi All,

This is a text file that will be crossposted to both
rec.crafts.knots and to alt.binaries. In alt.binaries, it will have
the scans of the knot attached. The scans include the text on tying
the knot. If your news server does not get binary groups, let me
know by e-mail and I'll send you a package with all the knots.

This knot is nearly as strong as a bowline, ties as easily, and
unties faster with just a tug of the slipped end. It has never
slipped a millimeter in anything but monofiliment. If one uses two
loops instead of one, it makes a very secure connection in
monofilament to a piece of fishing tackle but it can be difficult to
tighten without the knot inverting.

The method of physically tying the knot is similar to the Lynda's
Loop knot. See if you see the similarity should you become familiar
with both of them.

Regards,
O J
