If you make a sling for your arm, you tie the knot where your shoulder is. Then your arm rests in the pocket of the triangular cravat. You tie the 2 farthest corners of the cravat together with a square knot.

  • For an arm sling to support injured arms or wrists or to take the weight of the arm off a dislocated shoulder a reef knot should be tied at the hollow over the collar bone on the injured side.
  • For an elevation sling used in the case of shoulder or collar bone injury or to control bleeding/swelling in a hand injury a reef knot should be tied as above but on the uninjuredside.
