    Say, I'm not an expert on tying ghillies, but I'm wondering if having so much of the ends of the laces dangling down will be problematic. Do you have enough length to go around the ankle one more time (not ballerina fashion, I mean, at the place where you currently have your last wrap) and tie a neater, more compact bow?
    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.

    Regrettably, no. I may have to double the knot.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Rex.
