1. Make a loop in the heavier line and run about 10” of the lighter line through the loop.2. Hold the 3 lines between your thumb and index finger. Wrap the light line back over itself and both strands of the loop.
3. Make 10 tightly wrapped turns. Feed the tag end back through the loop and exit the loop the same side as it entered.
4. Hold both ends of the heavy line and slide the wraps to the end of the loop. Pull the light line to tighten and clip tag end close to the knot.
