               Rolling hitch




               Another  variation  of  the  clove  hitch,  which


               resists sideways pull and is much easier to tie than
               the camel hitch, is the rolling hitch. One of the most


               common uses of this knot is to tie a small line to a
               larger one. It’s a handy knot, almost as versatile as

               the clove hitch and more secure.

































                 1  Take a turn around the pole. As with the clove hitch, it doesn’t matter


                     which way you go as long as you keep going in the same direction.
