Sheet Bend With Janine
Good morning, and/or afternoon, and/or evening everyone! I received a comment on a previous Instructable (https://www.instructables.com/id/Zeppelin-Bend-with...) that confused a Zeppelin Bend with a Sheet Bend, so I thought I'd share how to make a Sheet Bend with all of you!
A Sheet Bend, like any other bend, attaches two ropes to each other. A Sheet Bend is particularly useful because it's good for attaching ropes of two different sizes, and is super simple to make.
Make a Bight.
Super easy.
Under Over
Pass another rope up through the bight. It should go under the bottom line, and over the top.
Behind the Back.
Pass the working end of your second rope back behind both ends of the bight, nearer towards the mouth.
Through the Loop.
In the last step, you created a loop over the bight. Pass your working end through it.
Pull It Tight.
That's it!
