Bend to connect shockcord to Zing-it

I've searched for a couple of hours now...

Someone started a thread on a bend (knot) that is used to attache the end of a length of shockcord to a length of Zing-It (or some other small diameter rope).

I'm not looking for this thread. The thread had pictures of a knot that looked similar to a sheet bend.

Does anyone have that thread saved?

Thanks guys.

Going to use this knot to modify the netting shock cord on my newly ordered Switchback Light Hiker.

I carry several pieces of paracord with me at all times. Sometimes while idling in restaurants I practice with my hands under the table so, God forbid I need to, I can tie knots in the dark

Really sweet simple knot/bend by the way.

Shane, here is a picture of one of my DIY underquilts with the Albright knot. I also use this knot in fly fishing to attach my backing to the fly line.
