🔍 Key Concepts

• Know the basic sheet bend shape: one rope forms a bight, the other weaves under, around the bight, and back under itself. • A double sheet bend is just a sheet bend with an extra turn of the working end around the bight. • Compare the knots that join two ropes together (not to a post, hook, or ring) in the illustration.

💭 Think About

• First, find the knot that looks like a regular sheet bend joining two lines. Then look for a very similar knot that has an additional wrap around the bight. • Eliminate any knots that are clearly tied around an object (spar, hook, ring, or fender); a double sheet bend is used to join two lines, not to secure to an object. • Compare the crossings of the working end: which option shows the working end taking two turns around the bight before tucking under itself?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that the knot you choose is between two separate lines, not around hardware or a post. • Confirm you can clearly see two wraps around the bight of the thicker line in the illustration, not just one. • Make sure the general form still matches a sheet bend pattern (one bight + one line weaving through and under itself).
