Re: Knots in the rope?
On splices...
As I read it, an "end cap splice" of up to four inches in length would probably be OK (though that would be rather short for 1" line).
Slicing the rope along its length to another rope would require the splice to still be no larger than 1" in diameter (not too difficult if the line is 5/8" or smaller) would still be "braided" and allowed.
Splicing a loop into the end of the line (unless it were very short and could all fit in 4") would not be a knot and would not be allowed. (Say the last part three times fast.)
[Usual caveat that this is my opinion, not a Q&A answer.]
