Use pipe cleaners to practice tying. = The knot is applied by dry fitting the two ends and measuring the = length for the coil, before making the becket and coil. Start the coil = and watch the ends so that when thet are close they can be mated. You = will have to twist the crook into position or loosen the hitch and mate = the two ends then twist the string in the direction of the inner wrap. = The twist will only be like a half turn or so and is not hard to work = with.=20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
