                                                             KNOTS FOR LASHING


                                           Sheer Lashing
                       Also called Round Lashing, this method will bind two poles parallel to
                       each other.


                       1  Anchor the rope to one of the poles with a Clove Hitch (see Chapter 7).


























                       2  Wrap the rope around both poles with light and even tension,
                          leaving enough space between them for the frapping turns.
                          Continue making wraps until you cover a distance that’s about
                          twice the width of a single pole.
