If you can keep both sheets together then a knot known as lark head or a
cow hitch. Look: http://www.ehow.com/how_13480_make-larks-head.html

In the picture it is done around a stick, you make it in the clew
cringle.

If it's important that the sheet not slip, you can do better than the
larkshead. Even a round turn and 2 half hitches make a more
stable attachment

Brian Whatcott Altus OK.
