Probably the most useful knot out there. Learn a square knot and a slip knot and you have a decent base of useful knots for everyday things. Throw a clove hitch and a half hitch into the mix and you are pretty golden. Furthermore if you know a half hitch, a bowline, and a simple overhand knot and you can literally tie anything to anything, even itself.

Then loop your finger through the bisector and pull it forward, pass the working end through the gap and push the bisector back in place and tighten
