Today we are going to look at the easiest and most useful knot that I know of. It is called Two half hitches. A hitch is a knot that ties a rope to something. I am sure that you have heard of a hitching post from old western movies. The friction that is caused by the wrapping of the rope holds the hitch in place. Because of the friction this knot will hold tight for a very long time and will not loosen. It is a great knot for camping, making a tent out of a tarp, making a clothes line, tying up a boat, or a mule.
Let’s begin:
Step 1: Press the end of the rope through a ring or around a pole.
Step 2: Pass the end behind the remaining end of the rope. (This is known as the standing part.)
Step 3: Bring the end back up and pass it through the eye you just formed and pull tight. This is a half hitch.
Step 4: Pass the end of the rope around the standing part again.
Step 5: Bring the end up and through the loop just formed.
Step 6: pull it snug. 
See you tomorrow!
