step
Beginning at the marriage, tuck marked pairs of strands under the nearest
unmarked pair. Then tuck an unmarked pair under the nearest marked pair.
Complete 1 full set of tucks in one direction with all the strands and then do another full
set of tucks on the other side of the marriage. Pull everything tight before proceeding.
Continue tucking the strands around the rope until you have completed
4 full tucks on each side of the marriage with all the strand pairs.
Next, select the strand closest to the marriage point in each pair.
Tape this strand and cut the excess off as shown below.
Splice the remaining single strands for 2 more
full tucks, tape and cut off as shown in Fig. F.

Trim last tucked strands so all exposed
strands are similar in length after
their final tuck.
