Thanks, Alice, for your helpful thoughts!! It's nice to know a lacemaker of your experience is also using a knot!! I'd love to become skillful enough not to do that, but I'm not there yet!!

The most effective way to secure a tally at the end is to put a single knot in 
the two-passives pair, not the worker/passive pair.  Leave the worker and mate 
alone.
