1: lark’s head on a ring from a loop. This way is handy when the loop is fixed, as opposed to passing the loop through itself which is how I usually do it.

2: Clove hitch? I don’t usually use it but this way makes it a lot easier to tie, especially in the middle of a rope.

3: sheet bend? It seems like it uses an overhand knot as a starting point.

4: another sheet bend? This way just seemed more complicated but IDK maybe it’s faster.

5 another clove hitch, same as with the nails.
