How to Tie Knots


Tautline_Hitch

  Can be tied on a line that is taut. When used for tying a tent guy line, you can tighten or loosen the line by pushing the hitch up or down on the standing part.   Pass rope around the peg. Then bring the end under and over the standing part and twice through the loop formed. Again, bring the rope end under, over, and through the loop formed. Tighten the hitch around the standing part.
