“The interested reader is called to try this knot with a variety of materials, with two or three coils, and with a more or less shortened knot, and report his findings.”

To my surprise the “TIBness” method is relatively easy to understand if you happen to play with Cat paws as I do often.  
Playing with just one helix I came to the conclusion that this loop is a great adjustable structure, no unknotting to do, just loosening and closing again will do the trick.  
Of course just on helix means that you will have to wisely choose the standing end…

H\_adj\_TIB\_X\_a = loose form top  
H\_adj\_TIB\_X\_b = loose form top  
H\_adj\_TIB\_X\_c = closed form  
Loop\_H\_adj\_X = a TIB method of tying.
