A Pile Hitch is a quick and secure hitch knot that’s most commonly used for mooring a boat. It can be tied in the middle of a rope as it doesn’t need access to both rope ends.
To tie a Pile Hitch, create a bight in the middle of a rope. Then wrap it around the post near the free end, go over the standing ends, and place the bight over the post.
