Today, we were taught the way to tie a gyn lash. The steps to tie it are:

1) Start with a clove hitch on one of the poles.
2) Wind a rope alternatively across spars.
3) Make a turn about at the first or last spar before frapping.
4) End with a clove hitch.

Besides the gyn lash, we also practised tying round lashes and square lashes. We practiced tying these lashes until the end of the session.
