'''Steps description''': start with making a two identical loops on a rope (1,2). Then place one loop over the other in a way that the end-ropes are surrounded by the rope between the lops (3). Pull a carabiner through the loops (4). Tighten the knot by sequentially pulling on the ends a few times and lock the gate (5,6,7). At the end, do not forget to inspect the hitch and the gate lock (8).
