The act of tying or tightening ropes, strings, etc., and the knots used for this purpose. They are broadly divided into knots such as Hitoe-musubi, which is used to create a knot, and the figure-eight knot, knots such as Ma-musubi, Otoko-musubi, Hata-musubi, and Tegusu-musubi, knots such as Ma-musubi, which ties both ends together, knots such as Mo-i-musubi, which is used to tie a string to a stake, knots that shorten the length of the string in the middle, and decorative knots.
