How to Tie Knots


Midshipman's Hitch

  An excellent hitch which can be temporary or permanent. It makes an excellent guy line hitch if a slider on a guy is broken or missing. It is identical in form to a Rolling Hitch. This knot is also useful as a binder knot for a bale or roll. It can be made and slipped up tight, then slipped back to loosen the package as and when required.
