builder's knot, knot consisting of two opposing half-hitches with the ends of the rope extending in opposite directions (used to fasten a rope to a pole or to another rope)
The clove hitch is a type of
knot. It consists of two identical
half hitches made successively around an object. It is most effective used as a crossing knot. Although it can be used as a
binding knot, it is not particularly secure in that role. A clove hitch made around the standing part of the line is known as either
Two half-hitches or
Buntline hitch, depending on whether half-hitches progress away or towards the hitched object.
