Help identify this bowline variant

[oguz-ismail]

Hi. I tied this knot a while ago, and as it's too simple to be a new invention, been wondering if it has a name or is documented anywhere. I checked the single-loop knots chapter twice and pretty sure it's not in ABoK. Do you guys recognize it/know its name?

Some sort of crossing point decoding, would be very helpful, for this knot recognition.

For example ` black dot = over  under? i have a clue, but need to be sure.

Sorry. Starting from the circle on the right, circles = under, dots = over.

Thanks for the clarification.

I think it's the same with this variant presented in the following topic....

If we change the chirality of the nipping structure and omit the tail slipping, we get your knot design.

I'm not sure about its name.

Andreas presents it as a kalmyk alternative, but i see it as a single Karash bowline variant!

Either way, the tail slipping is a great invention for the tibness.

Yeah, and thanks for the identification, they are clearly the same knot. Cheers and good day!
