Hi Hazen,
Good picture! I do not know if there is a name for this knot, but I =
refer to it as the shepherd's knot due to the shape of the one leg.  It =
has one advantage in thet there is only one tang that protrudes thus it =
can be positioned to avoid tuning pins that are too close together by =
turning the string over if you                                           =
                                                                         =
                                                                         =
                                                                         =
                                                                         =
                                                         ifyou happened =
to not check the relationship of the loop end to where the knot would =
end up <G>
Its disadvantage is that the tang of the crook end is longer and will =
possibly be in the way of the tuning pin when the string is brought up =
to pitch.
The three knotty offer still holds <G> pun intended.
