Anchor Hitch

                Sometimes known as the Anchor Bend, this is used to attach the anchor line
                to the anchor itself—especially because you wouldn’t have to jump two
                ropes for this. You can add half hitches to this, as well.

                Instructions:

                      1.  Make sure to let the tail pass around the post twice. This will keep

                          the second turn of the knot slack as can be.
                       2.  Then, let the tail pass through the standing end and under the real
                          slack so you could have the half-hitch tied.
                       3.  Continue doing so until such time that you have tied the second of

                          the half hitches so the knot could be completed.
