Knot Again - Two Half Hitches

The half hitch is simple knot and is basically a variation of the overhand knot. If the half hitch is tied by itself, it slips very easily and cannot hold anything. However, the half hitch occurs as a component in many more complicated knots to bind the standing part of the rope to the opposite end. This knot was used twice in the standing end of the Trucker’s Hitch to bind the knot to prevent the rope from slipping.
