How to tie the 5L 11B 2-pass Gaucho ie Spanish Ring knot – the easy way

Fast and easy way to tie a 5L 14B Gaucho knot ie enlargened Spanish Ring knot


Text from YuoTube: An fast and easy way to tie a 5L 14B gaucho knot ie an enlargened Spanish Ring knot. This utilizes the direct build or braid method which does not need a base Turkshead. I simplified this method so that wide (as in more bights) Gaucho knots can be tied without the use of tools. You can enlargen it as much as you want. After I found out how to do it I remembered seeing the similar method in Loren Damewood’s video on the 5L 7B turkshead. When I watched it about a year ago or earlier I could not really grasp it. Interesting how we subconciously process information.
