    I'm rather tall so I can't afford to sacrifice length.

    I'm short, but length has never been an issue.

    I tried it, it's surprisingly easy and possible to do it real-time with the video. After a second try I had it nicely lined out, and... that knot is hideous!!

    Something tells me that Eldredge knot would have made a good Seinfeld episode.

    Kramer would see a conspiracy surrounding it.


    Too fat for my tastes. This knot looks like that would be the case as well.
