Scaffold Knot: A simple knot that lets the hook swing freely on the line.

• Put a 7 inch loop of line through the center.
• Put the upper part between thumb and forefinger, making a loop.
• Make two loops over the double part, holding them between thumb and forefinger.
• Pass the end through the two loops, plus the first loop made.
• The knot can now be tightened and worked down against the eye of the hook.
