What is Two half-hitches?
[[File:Dubbelehalvesteek.svg|thumb|Two half-hitches]] '''Two half-hitches''' is a [[knot]] that is often used to attach [[rope]] to poles or other objects. It is one of many knots that are called [[hitch (knot)|hitches]]. When a [[clove hitch]] is tied around a rope, it forms the two half-hitches. A swift method for securing a knot to a post involves initially creating a loose Granny Knot, while ensuring a long end remains. As the ship sways, it will naturally take up the slack, causing the Granny Knot to transform into Two Half Hitches.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Two Half Hitches|url=https://www.animatedknots.com/two-half-hitches-knot|access-date=2024-04-30|website=www.animatedknots.com|language=en-US}}</ref> == References == {{reflist}} ==Related pages== * [[List of knots]] {{stub}} [[Category:Hitches]]
