'''Tying:''' To tie a round Lashing begin with a [[clove hitch]] around both poles, about six inches from the end of one pole. Then, wrap the free end of the rope around both poles parallel, and below, the [[clove hitch]] about seven or eight times. End this portion with a [[clove hitch]]. Then repeat the process about six inches from the other end of the spar. | '''Tying:''' To tie a round Lashing begin with a [[clove hitch]] around both poles, about six inches from the end of one pole.
