Re: What

Well why knot, I'll have a go at a reply.

Perhaps two half knots to make 1 full knot.

Or a neck knot. For looking presentable in a video conference meeting, e.g. WFH and Zooming along. All the while knot wearing pants.

or a Love knot.

What's knot to like with any of those?

Re: What

What knot? The Whatknot of course. (ABOK #1208 et al)


1208. THE WHATKNOT. This is the same knot formation as the GRANNY KNOT, but the ends are diagonally opposite each other. It is hardly a practical knot. But with the ends seized it is also called the REEVING LINE BEND (#1459), and it also servers as an interesting trick (#2579)
