The square lashing seems to work best when two pieces of wood need to be secured at right angles to one another.

1. On one of the pieces of wood, tie an end of paracord in a clove hitch or a timber hitch. I prefer a timber hitch, but either can be used.

2. Next bring the working end up and behind the top piece, over the left piece, under the bottom piece, and over the right piece. Repeat these turns at least three to four times. I kept the turns loose in the above picture to better illustrate the pattern.

3. This illustrates the previous step except that the paracord is tight around the wood, as it should actually be.

4. Make one full turn around one of the pieces of wood and repeat the previous step in the opposite direction. Make sure everything is tight and end in a clove hitch.

5. A finished square lashing will securely hold two pieces of wood and can bear a load.
