Bowlines 


To make a Bowline Knot:

Lay the end a of a rope over the standing part b. Form with 6 a bight c over a. Take a round behind b and down through the bight c. This is a most useful knot employed to form a loop which will not slip. Running bowlines are formed by making a bowline round its own standing part above b. It is the most common and convenient temporary running noose.
