Mega Ian Knot Flip Book

Mega Ian Shoelace Knot diagram

This is a more secure variation of my Ian Knot. Make a double-loop with both ends and simultaneously pull them through each other. The result is super-secure, though nowhere near as fast as the regular Ian Knot.

Begin with regular “Starting Knot” Fold both lace ends into “loops” Re-loop ends into double-loops Cross loops, left (yellow) in front Start to feed loose ends into loops Feed loose ends right through loops Pull tight to complete the knot
