in this knot tutorial, you can learn how to tie this great variation of the alpine butterfly knot.
it´s a simple way to attach a closed object to the middle of a rope. Maybe you run out of gear or you want to rig your system without an additional carabiner, then this could be something for you.
thanks @RopeLab for teaching this technique.
but what is a alpine butterfly knot? it's also known as lineman's loop, butterfly knot or lineman's rider.
this knot is used to form a fixed loop in the middle of a rope.
it’s is an excellent mid line rigging knot - it handles multi-directional loading well and has a symmetrical shape that makes it easy to inspect.
in a climbing context it is also useful for traverse lines, some anchors, shortening rope slings, and for isolating damaged sections of rope.
