               Jamming bend




               Occasionally, you might want to attach a line to


               the bight of another line using a proper bend, rather
               than just a hitch-bend. That might sound impossible,


               as  most  bends  are  formed  using  the  ends  of  both
               lines. The jamming bend gets around that problem

               with a rather ingenious twist – quite literally!

























                1  Take two turns with the working end of one line around the bight of the



                                                        other line.
