Process
| The rope should be whipped a short distance (One and a half times the diameter) from its end. | |
| Lay the head of the twine along the rope, make a bight back along the rope | |
| Begin wrapping the twine around the rope and bight of twine securely.
Wrap until the whipping is one and a half times wider than the rope is thick |
|
|
Slip the working end of the twine through the bight. Carefully pull on the standing end of the twine until the bight and working end are pulled under the whipping (Note: It is normally necessary to maintain tension on the working end to prevent the bight from being dragged completely through and so destroying the whipping) |
|
|
Cut the twine flush with the edges of the whipping and the rope end not less than half its width from the whipping to give the rope end a finished look |

“Science and art are only too often a superior kind of dope, possessing this advantage over booze and morphia: that they can be indulged in with a good conscience and with the conviction that, in the process of indulging, one is leading the “higher life.””

—Madeleine [Blair], U.S. prostitute and “madam.” Madeleine, ch. 4 (1919)
“Opinions are formed in a process of open discussion and public debate, and where no opportunity for the forming of opinions exists, there may be moods—moods of the masses and moods of individuals, the latter no less fickle and unreliable than the former—but no opinion.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
