Fig. ?]?] Clove hitch. By twisting the rope to the right with the right hand, form two loops in a figure eight with the ends of the rope side by side at the center and ex- tending in opposite directions, as shown in Fig. 77. By still further twisting the right hand in the 77, the hitch is thrown Put the loops over the Fig. 78 Beginner s method, same direction, as indicated by the arrow in Fig into the completed form as shown in Fig. 78. object and pull taut. (2) By the sailor's method the hitch is made while there is a pull on the rope, as in mooring a boat. Sustain the strain on the rope with the left hand, as shown in Fig. 79, and by twisting the rope to the right with the right hand, as indicated by the arrow, first form a loop in the rope and then roll the loop over the top of the post. Move the left hand up bej^ond the loop, hold the rope there, and with the right hand form a second loop and roll it in place as shown in Fig. 80. Note that in the finished hitch. Fig. 81, the diagonal rope binds both ends against the post. (3) Hand and toe method. This is used by sailors for heavy rope. Draw the rope along the floor from left to right across the toe of the right foot, and then swing it around back again from right to left, forming a loop. With the foot turn the whole loop upside down and over to the left. Then form a second loop by swinging the rope around in the same direction as before. The loops will then be arranged as in Fig. 77, except .^^^. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - colorati
