DAY
               18


               Seized round turn and two half


               hitches




               Tied  using  traditional  ropes,  a  round  turn  and


               two  half  hitches  will  probably  outlive  its  tyer  but
               modern  cordage  can  be  slippery,  jeopardising  the


               knot. Fear not! A seizing will transform this modest
               knot into a permanent solution.
































                  1  Tie a round turn and two half hitches (Day 17). Make sure the knot is


                                     tightened before putting in the seizing.
