    The document discusses various types of knots, including half knots, double overhand knots, Flemish knots, reef knots, sheet bends, carrick bends, fisherman's knots, clove hitches, bowlines, bowstring knots, artillery loops, and dead knots. It provides brief descriptions and instructions for tying some of the knots, such as keeping the cross point of a bowline between a finger and thumb while making a clockwise turn with the wrist. It also notes that a bowline may not be secure enough if the loop is heavily loaded and recommends making the loose end 12 times the circumference for safety.

    Keep the cross point in step A between a finger and thumb and make a clock-wise
    turn with your wrist. Without the loop in between, it is the same knot.
    If the loop is expected to be heavily loaded, the bowline is, in fact, not secure
    enough. There is a rule of thumb which states that the loose end should be as long as
    12 times the circumference for the sake of safety.

    Bowstring knot

    Artillery loop

    Dead knot
