Run the line in the opposite direction around the calf and mid-thigh right next to the previous line. Run the loose ends through the loop that was created by the last turning of the line. Pull snug, but not uncomfortably so as you need to keep wrapping, and do not want the person you are tying to loose circulation, plus you will need a *bit* of room between the thigh and calf later on in finishing the Kani tie.
