visualization challenge

I've been reviewing knots, and this problem occurred to me:

(if you already know the sheet bend, never mind)

Can you tie this knot, first try? Study the diagram. Grab two ropes. Start as shown - form a loop with the left rope. Easy peazy, I expect everyone here will succeed.

Next, the challenge: Grip the two ends, one in each hand. Now tie the knot, directly, like a shoelace, WITHOUT forming the loop.

Can you nail it, first try? Harder than it looks! Spatial visualization is a valuable skill for any engineer -

No.

Makes no difference.

Not me!

I thought that *was* the challenge! :-D
