6-20 Friday Knot for Thought

What would you do with a Double Fisherman's knot?

So this weeks Knot for Thought is the Fisherman's knot as it is useful when you are connecting cordelette, or a stopper knot in the end of your rope on a big wall, or to make your followthrough figure eight more secure if you leave a long tail.

So here is an interesting short video on how to tie it 

Essentially you are looping one end around the other side of the rope back on itself. Then pass the end through the loops created and repeat on the other end.

Simple and useful knot to know.
