THE EVER YTHING KNOTS BOOK
Wagoner’s Hitch
The Wagoner’s Hitch is a leveraged hitch very similar to the Trucker’s Hitch.
It needs tension on it to stay secure, and it comes undone with just a shake.
1 Make a crossing turn, then grab a bight in the running end just
below it.
2 Pull the bight of the running end through the crossing turn. This
forms a lower loop that the running end will pass through after it
goes around an anchor point.
3 Pass the running end around the anchor and back up through the
lower loop.
