I hope that in one of the photos, at least,
the knot is shown clearly. So far, I've seen
images that suggest the impossible : an odd
number (5, i.p.) of ends. !? In the image of
this thread (#3, is it --and I've seen so far just
on other, on this typing), I posit a trio of ends
on the left side --the upper two nearly in the
same visible space, but the combination being
just two wide to be a single strand/end.
Given this, though, I'm at a loss to work all of
these SIX ends through so small/compact a knot!!?
Also, we have not been (have we?) given indication
of what lies beyond the knot --i.e., are any of the ends
in fact the same strand (legs of an eye, e.g.),
or do we actually have a trio of pieces of cord,
knotted somehow (possibly --likely, given how
compact the knot is-- with one or two pieces
simply passing through the knotted 3rd piece).
