Timber Hitch

- Used to attach a rope to a log, or where security is not an issue.
This knot tightens under strain, but comes undone extremely easily
when the rope is slack.
- Wrap the rope around the log, then pass the running end around the
standing part of the rope. Finally twist the running end around itself
three or four times. (Note: this is only shown twice in the
animation.)

- Tip: Jolly useful for dragging logs back to the camp fire!
