Coxcombings are generally made as protective coverings or over handles or rails to
provide a better grip. Other “whippings” to protect rope ends are shown in Appendix A.
CROWN SENNIT
The Crown Sennit is based on a series of Crown Knots (see Chapter 1), but with four
strands instead of three. To begin, bind four cords or ropes together, with tape or a
Constrictor Knot (see Chapter 6) tied in string.
STEP 1 Form the first Crown Knot, as shown.
STEP 2 Tighten the first knot, and make another one.
STEP 3 Tighten the second knot on top of the first one and continue tying Crown
Knots, one on top of the other.
