So I'm oblivious to the dark sorcery of knots.
I spent most of my night tonight sipping beer and thing knots to a chair from my dining table trying to learn, but it's all so overwhelming.
So,
Simply put, if I picked up a tarp (slowly being seduced away from my tent), would I be good if my line from the tie outs to the trees were simple bowlined or double half hitched to the tarp and then run through a pair or wasps/flyz/fleaz?
Or I suppose I could run stingers and simple double hitch the rope to them as well, but, anyway, is that strong enough?
Similarly, if I decide to forgo Dutch bling on the guy outs, is a bowline or some such from the tarp going to an adjustable taut hitch on the stake a legitimate configuration for my first night out?
I eagerly await your sage-like advice
