So I have some thin 2mm cord to attach my tarp to my 4mm ridgeline.
I want to make prusik knots on the guy line to tension the thing but to I ...
a) make a fixed loop (with a double fishermans knot), make a prusik over the guy line and attach the tarp using mini carabiners
b) make a loop at one end of a short (10cm) piece of 2mm cord with a bowline or double figure 8.
then make a stopper knot of some type on the other end and then use a larks head to connect the two?
anyone better at knots want to weigh in? I'm not sure I've been very clear :S
