Time it takes me to tie a rope halter now - less than 15 minutes. Time it will take you to learn from these instructions - Plus or minus 40 hours. Time it takes to tie a rope halter with a puppy helping you tighten the knots - 3 hours. Note These directions are for an adult horse with a small head. If you get confused it is best to untie all knots and start over.
Directions Tie simple knots at the distances shown below.
Measurements are from knot to knot and do not include knot. Make the knots firm but not tight because you will be bringing the rope back around to tie into those knots. The last knot in about the middle of the rope is a knot with a loop for the tie loop of the halter. After you tie the tie loop you go back and tie into the knots you have already tied. To tie into a knot, loosen knot and tie into knot following rope path.
