"Alpine Butterfly Loop (Lineman's Loop)" knot for mountain climbing

---

What is now known as the Alpine Butterfly Loop was described twice by Ashley: Lineman's Loop; and Harness Loop. It provides a secure loop in the middle of a piece of rope. Load can be safely applied: from the loop to either end of the rope; between the two ends with the loop hanging free; or to the loop with the load spread between the two ends.
