English term or phrase: double throwing
Excerto de um manual sobre técnicas cirúrgicas básicas.

The knots are rendered "square" by reversing the direction of throw and pull of each successive knot. Where there is resistance, the security of the knit may be facilitatted by "DOUBLE THROWING" the first knot.

laçada dupla
Explanation:
Penso que aqui throw e pull correspondem a introduzir e puxar, mas que "double throwing" será uma laçada dupla. Encontrei algumas ocorrências, mas é um pouco um tiro no escuro, pois apesar de existir o termo pode não corresponder a este termo em inglês. É apenas uma sugestão.
