Blake Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 IS there a type of knot that can be used to tie string or cord around the corner or a tarp, or sheet? I thought I recalled seeing a diagram, but cant think of the name. IT would work when there is no grommet or tie-out place on the corner of a sheet. THANKS!

Gary_Yngve Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 i dunno how well this will work, but.. fold a corner over a pebble. tie a noose tightly around the corner flap w/ pebble. Idea would be that the noose can't slip past the pebble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out this guy's page on Improvised Seating With a Towel and Para-cord for it in use to make a hanging chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
