It consists of a rope in the form of a continuous loop laid out as an upright square shape with loops at each of the four corners. Since the rope is not actually knotted, it would in topology topological terms be considered an unknot . An angular Bowen knot is such a knot with no rounded sides, so that it appears to be made of five squares. A lozenge shaped Bowen knot is called a bendwise Bowen knot . When used as a symbol , an ordinary Bowen knot is known as Saint John s Arms .

Inferior to reef knot for binding purposes, it can release suddenly and unpredictably. abok number 1206 The granny knot is a binding knot , used to secure a rope or line around an object. It is considered inferior to the reef knot , which it superficially resembles. Neither of these knots should be used as a bend knot bend for attaching two ropes together. When attempting to tie a reef knot, it is easy to produce a granny knot accidentally. This is dangerous because the granny knot can slip when heavily loaded. A tightened granny knot can also jam and is often more difficult to untie than the reef knot. It is better to tie a reef knot in nearly all circumstances. One way to distinguish them is that in the reef knot each loop passes completely over, or completely under not through the neck of the other. The reef knot is commonly taught as left over right, tuck under then right over left, tuck under . The granny knot is the first step repeated twice, left over right, tuck under . This is a very common mistake made by people learning to tie a reef knot.
