How do you keep the tension when tying that? With a regular shoelace knot, I have a spare thumb to place on the base knot so that it maintains the tension I initially selected with the base knot. With the Ian knot, it feels like I just get whatever it feels like giving me.

I use my pinky or ring finger to apply pressure on the base knot
