Non-loose knots is a special class of knots studied in contact geometry. Last couple of years have shown some applications of these kinds of knots. Even though defined for a long time, not much is known about their classification except for the case of unknot. In this talk we will summarize what is known and tell about the recent work in which we are trying to give classification in the case of trefoil.
