		Start To start, overlap the ends of two similar diameter lines for about 6" inches.

		Step 1 Take one end and form a loop, leaving about 8" inches of working end extending beyond the loop.

		Step 2 Tie a loose uni-knot, making six (6) turns around the towlines and leave the loop open.

		Step 3 Feed the tag end through the open loop, and then pull it…

		Step 4 …to form a snug tight knot around the line.

		Step 5 Repeat steps 1, 2 & 3 in the same order, to form a snug tight knot with the other line.

		Step 6 Cinch up both knots -- by pulling the two standing lines in opposite directions -- to slide the knots snugly together.

		Step 7 Trim the ends close to nearest knot and you’re done!
