And I thought for sure someone would ask how I got the cow hitch tied on the bight. Only one piece of cord.

You're very sneaky !

At first glance I didn't notice what you did, but as soon as I tried to tie it …. I got tangled up
I can sort of get bits of it ... but not quite !


Any clues ?

HAHA !

I think I did it ???

Going away and coming back to it helped. … although now I'm not sure it is right.
When its pulled tight it looks ok … but it slips too much.

Thanks for all the feedback. This knot looks unremarkable until you attempt to try it.
This is is good knot to challenge your friends to try

Here is how to do it

Thanks.

My previous attempt was wrong, but I've got it now !
I still struggled after step 3. I'm not sure what I was doing, but I kept ending up with my original version (where the loop slips).

But this is good now

You got it.
