Quick-Capture Arm Tie
by Rope Fashions
This is a quick tie for immobilizing your partners arms. It
can also be the beginning of a breast harness. One nice
feature of this tie is that if your partner's wrists start
falling asleep, you can untie them without undoing the
rest of the arm tie.
|
Step 1:
We begin with a 20- or 25-foot length of rope. Have your partner
cross her arms behind her back. Drape the doubled rope over her arms,
so that a couple of feet of rope are hanging down.
|
Step 2:
Wrap the rope around her wrists several times. You do not have
to make it too tight. The rest of the tie will keep her wrists
from pulling free.
|
Step 3:
Tie a square knot with the ends of the rope. Left over right...
|
Step 41:
and right over left.
|
Step 5:
Bring the end of the rope around the front of the body...
|
Step 6:
and around to the back, so that it crosses the upper arms a little
above the elbows. Loop the rope around the rope from the wrist tie.
|
Step 7:
Go around the front of the body again, in the opposite direction.
|
Step 8:
Bring the rope around to the back again.
|
Step 9:
Loop it around the rope from the previous pass.
|
Step 10:
Go around the front of the body one more time.
|
Step 11:
Again, loop the rope around the rope from the previous pass.
|
Step 12:
Bring the end of the rope under the rope that just came around from
the front, forming a half hitch.
|
Step 13:
Pull it snug.
|
Step 14:
Repeat the procedure again, forming a second half hitch.
|
Step 15:
Pull it snug, and you are done.
|
Step 16:
Here is the completed tie.
To tie this tie even more quickly, you can spin your captive
back and forth as you loop the rope around her, rather
than walking around her. This is quicker, and can give
her more of a captured feeling as she spun around.
I hope you enjoy this tie as much as we do.
