How to tie a Clove Hitch
Pass the end of the rope around the pole forming the first turn.
After you have formed the turn take the working end of the rope across the the standing part.
Now take the working end around the pole once more. This will make a second turn.
As you come up to the end of the second turn tuck the working end underneath itself. Pull on the ends to tighten the knot.
