Not to be overly trivial, but here is just a slight correction. The eye formed by a Lariat Loop Knot is what is called a HONDA. Pass the other end of the rope through the honda and you will have a lariat, or lass-rope, or riata, or soga, or just plain rope as those who use it frequently are most prone to call it. 'Lasso' is seldom used as a name for a rope; it is a verb and refers to the act of throwing a rope. 'Lariat' comes from the Spanish 'La riata.' http://www.inquiry.net/outdoor/spin_rope/throw_lariat.htm
