Method
                                               Make the first half hitch
                                               by twisting the rope
                                               clockwise with the lett
                                               hand (1). The second
                                               and third half hitches
                                               are formed slightly
                                               overlapping and with
                                               the same diameter as
                                               the first, and the rope
                                               running to the right
                                               must lie underneath
                                               (2,3). The central half
                                               hitch is widened and
                                               pulled through the two
                                               lateral eyes (4); tighten
                                               these side loops and the
                                               knot takes its shape (5).
                                               Check the exact
                                               position of the half
                                               hitches; then pull the
                                               knot tight. being sure
                                               that the end loops are
                                               the same size (6).
