Square package lashing

In this video I demonstrate how to do a square package lashing. I also demonstrate a reinforced version using crossing knots which add strength and stability to the lashing.
This lashing is demonstrated in the ABoK as #2086.
All in all, this is a super useful lashing both for sending out packages, moving packages around and even decorating a gift with!
Enjoy the video!

Thank u so much for your elaborated explantation.. successfully lashed the box for the first time

[@lexconor8498]

It's worth mentioning for us newbies that the standing end creates a box on the top, and never leaves the top.

[@nanr74]

Thank you Mark! This video is super helpful!

[@hemanthpattem9949]

It would have helped more if you told what length of rope is needed for a box of dimensions l x b x h and at what point to begin.

[@RDanielB]

Hi Mark - how do you figure out what length of cord you need??

[@SanjaySanjay-on7if]

Amazing

[@tyronekim3506]

Good but I was hoping to see 4 crossings on top and 4 crossing on the bottom, but I only saw 3 crossings on top for both versions.

[@eggsberts]

i just found this video and i think your voice is so nice and calm, the cadence is very nice as well. it is easy to absorb information. thank you for having an informative channel :D im excited to check out the rest!!

[@undefinednull5749]

Actually, this knot is only useful if you want to keep the package contained in a net but without any compression and/or use only a single piece of rope (which is never necessary, unless you won't have any more pieces of rope as long as that).
The solution to keep package tightly compressed is to use multiple ropes tied at one end to form a loop and the autolocking trucker's hitch. (I previously thought of maybe using a trucker's hitch after each wrap around of the single long rope, even if that would work without being self-interfering caused by the wrap-arounds being pulled in also the perpendicular (right angle) directions.

[@Linda-xp3ig]

Right over left, left over right, makes you’re knot, tidy and tight

[@Linda-xp3ig]

This is what I’ve taught for the reef knot A.K.A. Square knot

[@lalthanzuala5565]

Useful tactic.

[@algrho]

Has someone figured how long the string should be?

[@squidward2540]
