Teaching/learning mismatch Standard Shoelace Knot Also known as the "Around The Tree" shoelace knot" or simply the "Bowknot", this is probably the most common method for tying shoelaces: Make a loop with one end, wrap the other end around and pull a loop through the "hole" in the middle. Step 1: Tie a Left-over-Right Starting Knot as shown, then make the right (blue) end into a "loop" by simply doubling it back onto itself. Step 2: Take the left (yellow) end and pass it around to the right, going behind the right loop. Step 3: Continue the left (yellow) end around the right loop to end up in front. Step 4: Start to feed the left (yellow) lace into the "hole" that has just been made. Step 5: With the left (yellow) lace now through the "hole", grab hold of both loops and start to pull the knot tight. Step 6: Continue pulling on the loops until the knot is firmly tied. You have to DO it to learn it. zy. Book From scratch, for the web http: //www. fieggen. com/shoelace/standardknot. htm Frank Vahid, UCR / Zyante 3
