I have been using knot tying diagrams as one of my personal “pelican on a bicycle” evaluations, and this is the first one that really shocked me. The spacial reasoning is there!

This knot is tricky to tie, you can't just "tug" the ends. It requires patience and precision.

Would be useful if the strands were different colors.

There's a button for that.

I've had a glass of wine, but isn't it 3 half-hitches inside each other?

What was the prompt?

I suck at prompting: Create a realistic animation of tying a Matthew Walker knot. Didn't get it right the first time and adversarial review self-corrected it.

Is it just me or does the dragging feel backwards?

No, yes it's backwards.
