    This document provides instructions for tying three different knots: 1. The cow hitch knot is used to attach rope to an object by bringing the rope ends together, throwing the center over the object, and threading the ends through the loop. 2. The double half hitch knot is made by tying a series of half hitches with multiple cords to create a "raised line." 3. The gathering knot is used to secure a bundle of cords by wrapping a separate cord around the bundle and threading it through a loop to tighten.

    The document describes several different knots used for ropes including the cow hitch knot, reef knot, double half hitch knot, and gathering knot. It provides instructions for tying each knot.

    The cow hitch knot, reef knot, double half hitch knot, and gathering knot are described. The cow hitch knot is used to attach rope to an object. The reef knot is another name for the cow hitch knot. The double half hitch knot is used to tie multiple ropes together. The gathering knot is used to secure a bundle of cords.

    To tie a double half hitch knot: 1) Define the lead rope. 2) Loop the next rope over the lead rope. 3) Thread it behind and through the loop, pulling it snug. 4) Repeat steps 2-3 to create two loops.

    Also known as the cow hitch knot, this knot is mostly used to

    attach rope to an object.

    1.

    2. 3.

    1. Bring the two ends of the rope together to find the center of the rope.

    Variations include the reef knot or Hercules knot. Used to bind
    rope around an object.

    1. 2. 3.

    4. 5.

    1. Separate your strands into three sections: right strand, center strands, and left strand.
    NOTE: The two center strands never separate so its easiest to think of them as one strand.

    2. Place the left strand over the center strands and then under the right strand. It will
    form a 4 shape.

    3. Thread the end of the right strand behind center strands through the loop of the 4 you
    just created. Pull snug.

    4. Now we’ll repeat the process but with the opposite strands to complete the knot.
    Place the right strand over the center strands and under the left strand to form a 4 shape.

    5. Thread the end of the left strand behind the center strands and through the loop of the 4
    you just created. Pull snug to complete the knot.

    ouble Half Hitch Knot
    Also known as the clove hitch knot. By tying a series of half
    hitches with several cords, a “raised line” will form.

    1. 2. 3.

    4. 5.

    1. Define your lead rope.

    2. Grab the next rope behind the lead rope and loop it over your lead rope.

    3. Thread it behind and through the loop you’ve just created and pull snug.

    4. Repeat the process to create two “loops” that now make up your double half hitch knot.

    5. Tighten gently and pull snug.

    athering Knot
    Also known as the wrap knot. Used to a secure a bundle of
    cords together.

    1. 2. - 3.

    4. 5.

    1. Using a separate cord, form a loop placing the left strand over the right.

    2. Wrap the cord up the bundle of rope.

    3. Continue wrapping until just a small part of the loop is left exposed and thread the cord
    through the loop.

    4. Pull the other end of the cord to tighten the loop until its pulled into the wrapped part
    of the bundle.

    5. Trim the ends of the rope so they’re not visible.
