 Bowline on a Bight

 (NOT REQUIRED) Like the French Bowline, the bowline on a bight forms two loops, but they may be of the same size or differ.

Start by making a good size bight and an overhand loop as shown in figure A, and bring the end up through the loop. Open the end loop and bring it down and around the entire knot as in figure B. Set the knot securely before putting weight on it as in figure C.
