Quick Release Tarp Knot

Fix a line to a corner of a tarp with this easy-to-release knot. It’s quick to tie, too.

Step By Step

  1. Form a bight in your line and push it up through the grommet in your tarp.
  2. Form another bight in the standing part of the line and push it up through the loop that’s sticking through the grommet.
  3. Pull tight on the working end of the line.
  4. You now have one loop pulled tight and one loop still open.
  5. Make a bight in the working end and push it up through the loop.
  6. Pull down on the standing part to tighten the knot.
  7. To release, pull on the working end to release the knot.
