Default Horse halter with fiador knot

I would like to make some horse halters using the fiador knot. There are several web sites that show the procedure but the instructions and illustrations are difficult to understand and follow.
I am used to the very good instructions and illustrations in "The Complete Rigger's Apprentice". I would like to get instructions of that quality for my project. Do anyone know where I can find them?

Thank you.

Default Fiador

Hello,
As ordinarily shown, the Fiador is a nightmare to learn. I like the method which ties it as a bend, found here: http://users.pandora.be/vandenberghe...s/knots.html?1
You'll need to put the knot into the context of the halter.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss

Have you seen the 'Fiador tied in the hand' method in my book - Knots, A practical step by step guide to tying over 100 knots - by Gordon Perry. ISBN 0-7607-2996-4. Was sold in the USA by Barnes & Noble 2002/3.
