Love this knot. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! You’re a great instructor.

I like the approach and will use this as my go-to Spanish Bowline. But for those who, like me, found the results difficult to duplicate, note the following: He glosses over an important adjustment that he makes after passing the one loop through the other - he does two twists of the standing parts so that they're laying parallel. Pause the video at 48 seconds. Make sure both the exiting members are parallel like in the image. Without that move, you wind up with spaghetti.

Thanks for this. I just figured out that doing two twists of the rope before I even start saves me the effort of doing them later, in the middle of tying the knot.

Sorry FCA - you do say "I'll straighten out these two.." as you untwist the two exiting strands (time 0:42). So, my amended comment is "don't miss this important step".

Really wish I had some line in my hand right now. I haven't practiced tying the Spanish bowline in years because I found I never had any real world use for it.

Spanish bowline is just bull hitch with the bottom part pulled through the loops, isn't it? When I realized that, I found that doing the method of tying bull hitch around a ring skips the hassle of fixing the middle lines and made it much easier to put together and follow for me.

Very clever application of a double loop. A Double Alpine Butterfly is easier to tie but I guess this is less bulky and tidier. Any other advantage to the SB?

I thought a double alpine butterfly would be easier, certainly a lot less complicated and would do the job just the same.

Sheep shank seems to accomplish the same 2 loops needed with much less confusing technique. Make 3 loops, invert, pull either side of the middle one through both the outer ones. Of course, it's not as sturdy, since a sheep shank will slip once you lose tension, but it gets the same job done.

This is one of the more complicated ways to tie the Spanish bowline. I prefer what I call a "pull up" method that simply involves pulling loops up through each other and can be tied in the middle of the line. It's symmetrical and really fast when you get use to it. There's also a "flying" method that starts similar to the method in the video, but you throw the ends over the middle and then pull them up through it (also tied symmetrically but needs access to the ends).

I am fascinated at how cleaver this knot is. Just think of the hours spent Developing the first one. Would a double loop figure 8 work as well, like when compared, what are the pros and cons. Great video.

@@LeSadW666 I gave it a look and here's what I found. When you make 2 turns around the inside of the loop (any trucker's hitch loop), and pull hard, the double wrap can flip 90 degrees, causing one of the wraps to sit on top of the other, creating a very temporary lock. It's enough of a lock that you can let go while you secure the end you were pulling on, but it's not secure at all and if bump it in any way it will let go. I tried to photograph it, but it's such a small configuration, the photos are just not clear. I also couldn't come up with the "rule" of how to make it happen, I'm still in the just pull and release, pull and release, and watch and sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't"
