===Cross constrictor knot=== This variation is similar to the double constrictor knot but has the two riding turns crossing each other rather than riding along. It is unclear whether it is more secure than the double constrictor, and has the unhelpful aspect of being thicker at the bridge of the knot, with three rope diameters. <gallery> File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi 1.JPG|Step 1 of tying '''Cross constrictor knot''': simple knot File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi 2.JPG|Step 2 of tying '''Cross constrictor knot''': simple knot, sides pulled to form 3 loops File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi 3.JPG|Step 3 of tying '''Cross constrictor knot''': simple knot side loop folded over the middle loop File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi 4.JPG|Step 4 of tying '''Cross constrictor knot''': the far side loop folded over the simple knot File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi.JPG|Final step of tying '''Cross constrictor knot''': object through the 3 loops </gallery> <gallery> File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi_A.JPG|A : turn around object at right side then at left side forming a figure-eight just like on a cleat File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi_B.JPG|B : Complete the Figure-eight lashing File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi_C.JPG|C : Complete the [[overhand knot]] with the main line under both riding turns, entering from left File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi_D.JPG|D : Dress File:CaprazSikistirmaBagi_E.JPG|E : Tighten </gallery> There are two types depending on which direction the two riding turns cross. When the bottom riding turn is along the grove of the ends wrapping around each other on their way out, it gives a slightly lower knot height and may be seen as a [[strangle knot]] with an extra riding turn across.
