Finished Knot

The finished knot should be a tight, closed knot with a double wrap around the middle, as compared to the single wrap of either my Ian Knot or any Standard Shoelace Knot.

NOTE: Because the Surgeon's Shoelace Knot isn't formed symmetrically, the finished knot can end up looking crooked, especially if there's not enough slack for the laces to rearrange themselves during tightening.
