An Easier Way To Untie A Knot

There are several effective ways to tie a knot, from improvisational knots to time-tested knots. But it is an altogether different game when it comes to untying a knot. One of the common mistakes when untying a knot is to yank on the loose ends in hopes that it will pop free. However, it further tightens the knot and makes untying even more difficult. The easy way to untie a knot involves twisting the loose end.

Instead of grabbing one part of the knot or yanking one end, try to twist the loose end of the knot to a point where it cannot be twisted anymore. Then, simply push after that to unravel the knot easily.
