Bowline

The Bowline (bo-lin) is considered an excellent knot that is perfect for tying a loop in a string or rope.

The bowline's benefits are that its loop will not slip once drawn tight (which makes it ideal for dog leashes) and in its ability to be untied easily no matter how tight you've pulled it.



This site shows you an animation of how to tie a bowline.
