How to Tie a Noose

Welcome to my channel How to Knot and in this video, I will be showing you how to tie a noose. This knot is typically used in applications such as general purposes and camping. A slip knot which will tighten under a load and loosen when there is no load. While simple, this is an easy to remember knot which works great as a hitch as it’s compact and doesn’t require a larger length of rope to tie. The noose is also great for getting close to an object where other knots may cause difficulty for this. These can slip under load, which is why a stopper knot is recommended.

Usually I like to start with making an overhand stopper knot first.

I find it’s easier to working with a larger working end, so we can keep the noose a little more compact in the end.

Create a loop.

Then tie an overhand knot over the standing part.

Tighten and dress accordingly.
