 There are times when we encounter a situation where we need to learn to how to tie a proper knot, whether it is for the purpose of work such as tying rope to secure a heavy load of products from falling off to the everyday of outdoor travelling for camping with our children, family and friends.

Things like tying a rope for setting camps in the outdoors or for the literal work such as sailors who needs to tie their ships for the process of embarking in the harbor. The tying of the knot techniques has developed for thousands of years when people were still constructing materials from trees that they chopped and ties it with a knot or the fisherman that ties their boats for sailing purposes. Here's some popular knots that are found to be commonly used 

1. Square knots

 It is one of the most common type of knot tying, it is widely used for roping packages and bundles making it easier to handle but also quite effective. The tying process is a bit difficult but it has a strong grip, a function that sailors in the past prefer for tying parts of their sails when the winds are blowing high. It can also be used for first aid kit by tying the bandage on the area that is bleeding halting the blood from further gushing out. The process to tie the knot is by running the ends of the two ropes together while pointing opposite direction. Tying the ends from right to right over left afterwards, tying again in reverse direction that is left over right than pull tight.

2.Taut line(this one i could be wrong for the name)

This knot is exactly what a person who likes to do outdoor travel activities needs. It can function to tie a secure net for hoisting or climbing in a brief period to work as a basic snare where it will strengthen as the object is being pulled from the other short end. And the best part is that it is entirely simple to untie just by pulling the other end of rope. Tying method is by using the left hand forming a loop with the cord than strech the right hand inside the loop and pull the stand end of the cord making another loop.

3. Bowline knot 

 The function of bowline is that it is simple and easy to adjust in case there is a need of tying the load in a secure way and fast pull out. It is an effective knot for the purpose of hanging out hammock where the ants can't approach the campers from above grounds. It's also useful as a self-rescue knot one can tie around self and functions well in the case of pulling a heavy load higher. The method to tie the knot is simple, by twisting the rope making a small loop that allows for the intended loop size of the knot on the running end. Passing the end of the running rope through the loop and than circles around the fixed end of the rope and back to the small loop
