Rope arm gauntlets are purelydecorative. Although we’veconsidered trying to make cuffsout of them, we haven’t found agood way keep them fromtightening up when put undertension.

However, they are just the thingfor submissives who are ropesluts, the kind that start to gounder when they first feel thetouch of the rope. They canwear them all night at partiesand constantly have the feelingof rope on their bodies.

Begin with about a 30-footlength of 5/16-inch rope. Makea lark’s head around the wrist.

Pull the end through the hori-zontal loop, so you have twopairs of ropes going through theloop.

Bring the rope under the wrist,and bring it over the top again.

Bring the long end under therope from the lark’s head (theone that went under the wrist).

Make a horizontal loop in therope, and bring it around thewrist in the opposite direction,coming out underneath thewrist.

Repeat the procedure until youare almost out of rope. Takethe two ends, and pass one ofthem under a loop. (Exactlyhow you do this will depend onwhere you are when you run outof rope.)

Tie a square knot to finish offthe gauntlet.

However, you areultimately responsibile for the safetyof anyone you tie up. Know yourcaptive’s limitations, and any medicalconditions they may have. Don’t mixbondage with drugs or alcohol.
