[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 191817, member: 968"] Well, here's some instructions, but the pics didn't show up. See if it makes sense to you. MAKING A ROPE HALTER These plans will make a halter for a 500 - 1000lb steer. You will need 12’ of 3/8” rope. 1.) Mark 16” from one end of the rope. 2.) Lay the rope with the short end to your right. 3.) Make a loop with a 1/2” opening have the 16” mark at the center of the loop. Keep the short end above the long end. 4.) Pass the long end under 1 strand and over 2 strands of the short end, as close to the loop as possible, pull it tight.(Don’t pull your loop closed). (A) Keep the rope flat on a table. Next pass the short end under 1 strand and over 2 strands of the long end, as close to the last weave you made as possible, pull it tight.Keep the rope flat on a table.(B),(C) (A) (B) (C) 5.) Measure from the end of the loop back 6" on the short end of the rope and mark it. 6.) Have the loop on your left and the long end above the short end. 7.)Keeping the rope flat on a table. Lift the first strand up past the mark. Twist it counter clockwise 1/2 turn.(D) (D) (E) From above pass the long end down through the loop. (E) Keeping the rope flat on a table. Take the next strand twist it counter clockwise 1/2 turn and put the long end up through the loop. Keep the rope flat on a table. Then twist the next strand counter clockwise 1/2 turn and pass the long end down through the loop. (G),(H) (G) (H) 8.) Put a hog ring as close to the last loop as possible. Then cut off the extra rope. I didn't have any hog rings at the time we took these pictures, so I couldn't show it on the halter. 9.) Pass the long end through the first loop you made. (I) (I) Your done!! These plans will make a nice poly halter. [/QUOTE]
