The Figure Eight was on a few of the knot lists I looked at, and I decided I might as well learn to tie it (I have to do some logistics stuff before I start trying to tie for time). It's mostly used as a stopper to keep rope from sliding. It's pretty simple.

Make a loop, bring the back end over and in front, then back through, pull tight. Unlike a lot of knots, the trick is to go the "opposite" way instead of the same way. In front for the first part of the eight, and behind for the second.

3/5. I need to practice, but so easy!
