Question 10 of 11

10. Question

The “Bowline” is a great knot because it will not jam or slip. First your form and overhand loop. Then, the phrase to help remember how to tie one is:

The rabbit goes round and round the tree
The rabbit goes down the hole, around the tree, and out of the hole
The rabbit comes out of the hole, goes around the tree, and back down the hole
The hole goes around the tree and the rabbit watches. (This makes no sense…but if you tie the knot wrong that doesn't make sense either)
