wrong knot picture

[edit]
ABOK#1049 (top) and ABOK#1058

The picture used is actually the real single bowline on the bight i.e. abok #1058, not the span loop. In #1058 one end is double wrapped while the other end is single wrapped, in #1049 both are single wrapped.

According to ABOK #1057 "There are a number of knots that have been given this title (single bowline on the bight) including the HARNESS LOOP (#1050), but none of them have parallel ends as the real (DOUBLE) bowline on the bight (#1080) has." Cobanyastigi (talk) 21:29, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
