Lashings

               Lashings are a good solution when you want to bind sticks or twigs together.
               They hold objects together, and can be used in many ways. It’s a good idea to
               practice lashings before you need to use them “for real.”


                  There are three different kinds of lashings that are good to know: shear
               lashing, square lashing, and diagonal lashing. Start and end the lashings with
               a clove hitch (see page 8), as shown in the illustrations below.

                  On the right, there are some examples of constructions using lashings.
