KNOT 5 - UNI KNOT For attaching swivels, split rings and hooks
	Step 1 Pass the end of the line through the ring from beneath. Once you have done this, form a loop with the end making sure that the end of the line comes to rest over the top of the entire formation so far as shown.
	Step 2 Pass the end behind the formation and then up through the loop which you first made.
	Step 3 Repeat step 2 so that there are a total of 6 turns around the main body of the knot.
	Step 4 Once you have done this, the knot should look like the picture shown here.
	Step 5 Pull the knot tight.
