Welcome to my channel How to Knot and in this video, I will be showing you how to tie a lasso. This adjustable loop is typically used in applications for ranching or farming.

Start by creating a honda knot.

This is done by first tying an overhand knot and don’t tighten it just yet.

Create a second overhang knot, but this time at the end of the tail end, this will act as a stopper.

Now feed that stopper knot under and back through the first overhand knot.

Tighten and dress accordingly.

Now take the other loose end of the rope and feed it through the honda loop.

The honda knot creates a non jamming connection, allowing the lasso to be easily adjusted to hold or release animals. The lasso is typically made of a stiff rope to help maintain it’s shape and improve usability. It’s used in applications for ranching and sporting events such as rodeos to capture cattle and other livestock.
