The round loop and two half hitches is essentially a round loop attached to the end of the foot with a spike hitch. It is similar to the anchor curve, but the first half hook does not go below the initial curve.

The Round Twist and Two (or More) Socks Pulled(drunk#1720, p 296) is very useful for tying a rope to a ring, bar, pole, or pier pole, although probably less secure than theAnchor hitch (fisherman). As the name suggests, the full loop and the two half hooks are made up of two important parts:
- round turn:the initial'round turn'– actually two passes of the tail – should take the initial tension as you complete the knot. This can be critical when handling a tie line. Initially, you should add an extra turn, or even two extra turns if you are handling a heavy load, for example with a large boat or in high winds. These twists allow you to control the load while adding:
- Two or more half couplings.The two half hitches actually form a spike hitch around the end of the foot. However, it is common to see one or more additional half nodes, either to make the node more secure or to use up excess line.
Tie the knot:Learn to tie Half Hitches with one hand! This allows you to use your other hand to gain tension in a vessel that you can easily pull with much greater force than you could otherwise control. As emphasized above, when dealing with this force, use as many pole turns as necessary to control tension.
Address:Always give means nodes equal'address'.If you start the first half hook with the tail going over the rope, do the same for the next (and the next).
Variation using a cove:When the tail is long, half knots can be tied using a tuck (loop) instead of the tip. This consumes excess twine that might otherwise hang or require winding.
