# Vertical knot (mistake)

縦結び tate musubi

Shown only as the mistake to avoid: a granny knot whose ends stand up at a right angle to the object.

1. Look at the ends after the second tie.
2. Undo the second tie: pull B back up out of it and over to the left.
3. Bend D, now on the right, over the top to the left.
4. Bring B up over D and tuck its tip down through the ring.
5. Pull B and D left and right to tighten.
6. Done: a flat square knot on top of the box, its ends pointing left and right.

## How to undo it

Pull the upper end back out of the second tie, keeping the first tie, then retie the second half crossing the other way.

## Mistakes

- Crossing right over left both times (or left over right both times).
