granny knot
The granny knot is a binding knot, used to secure a rope or line around an object. It is considered inferior to the reef knot (square knot), which it superficially resembles. Neither of these knots should be used as a bend knot for attaching two ropes together.
== Etymology ==
Called the "granny's knot" with references going back to at least 1867, the knot was so-called because it is "the natural knot tied by women or landsmen". It has also been suggested that rather than impugning the knot-tying skill of grandmothers, the name "granny" may be a corruption of granary after its possible use tying the necks of grain sacks.
