Week ten is here only two left after this one. Last week went well no big problems. I am on track and nothing seems to stop me. Now that I have said that than something will go wrong before the end of the project. I was not able to find anything else about last week’s knot not even better ways to tie it,but it should not stop me this week. As far as last week in all when it was good. As far as the project as a whole is going there has not been any big setbacks or mistake all smooth sailing hope that it continues. This week I will do the tautline hitch knot. This knot is used to tie off to something but what it to be able to vary in length. This makes the knot very useful in a number of situations. This knot can be used by camper and tree climbers to tieing down aircraft on the flight deck. To tie the knot is as follows. First take the working end and bring over the body. Then pass behind the loop that has formed. Then cross over the loop and come down over the body. Then wrap over the body and pull through tighten it and it will hold what ever tension you have set. Week 9 here we go. Last week went great I was able to finish the knot and work on past knots. Part of this is because I had a extra day to work. That extra day was because we were off for veterans day so it gave me some time to work.some thing that I forgot to mention last week was that the knot is mostly used in jewelry is helps explain why the knot is not used in lifesaving situations. Other than forgetting that I’m ready to start this week's knot
