Two Half-Hitches

 TWO HALF-HITCHES (Required) This is a reliable and useful knot for attaching a rope to a pole or boat mooring. As the name suggests, it is two half hitches, one after the other. To finish, push them together and snug and snug them by pulling on the standing part.

Pass the end of the rope around the post. 
Bring the end over and under the body of the rope (known as the standing part), then back through the loop thus formed.
That makes a half hitch
Take the end around the standing part a second time and tie another half hitch. 
Pull it snug.
