Begin by tying a small loop in the end
of your line then cutting it off.
You will need this loop as a pull–through
to finish off the Bimini later on.

Take a loop of line and secure the standing part
by taking a bight of line around your left hand.

Roll in at least thirty twists.

Pass the loop over your shoe,
or any convenient fixture like a rod holder
in a boat, and keep tension on the loop
so it won't come off.

Keeping pressure on the standing part,
rotate the tag between thumb and forefinger
of the right hand to make the tag spiral back
over the twists.

Hold the tag between thumb and middle finger
of the left hand and put your right hand inside
the loop over your shoe and open the loop
by spreading your fingers and sliding your
right hand toward the left hand.

This will cause the tag to spiral back
over the twists while tension on the tag
is controlled by the pressure of your thumb
against the middle finger.

When the tag has spiralled back to the crotch
in the loop, place your left index finger
in the crotch to secure the tag.

Then take the small loop you first made
and commence wrapping it with the tag.

Wrap the loop, and both strands of the Bimini,
three or four times then pass the tag
through the loop.

Withdraw your loop, drawing the tag back out
from under the last few wraps.

Pull gently on the tag, rotating the Bimini
as you do so until a couple of twists appear
in the loop, then stop. If you pull tag out too far
you will shorten the splice.
