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.
