| How to Tie Knots |

| The Carrick Bend is among the strongest of knots, but requires that both ends be seized onto the standing parts. To make the Carrick Bend, begin by making a bight in the left-hand rope, then weave the right-hand rope through it as shown. Finish by seizing the ends of both ropes. |
