Double Coin Knot
Type: Decorative
The double coin knot can be used to join two strands of rope, such as in a hishi karada, or to create a loop in the middle of a single strand.
The knot can usually be replaced by simpler knots. However, with a little practice you can add a nice detail to your rope harness.
- Make a loop
- Cross the "eye" with the second rope
- Weave the second rope all the time
Remember to always alternate under and over.
