Starting Knot
|
|
All of the shoelace techniques shown on this site use the same "Left-over-Right" Starting Knot. Here's how to tie
this basic knot, known as a "Half Knot" or "Overhand Knot". Don't worry, this knot is a LOT easier than it looks
in these diagrams!
|
Step 1:
Cross the left (blue) end over the right (yellow) end. The left (blue) end is now on the right side.
|
Step 2:
Begin to wrap the right (blue) end around the front of the left (yellow) lace to end up at the back of the gap
between the laces.
|
Step 3:
Feed the right (blue) end through the gap to emerge at the front right hand side.
|
Step 4:
Pull both ends tight to complete the knot.
