Thanks to those who responded directly or on the reflector.  Favorites 
appear to include a bowline and half of a bow knot (like tying shoes).  One 
person referred me to Google, and while an awful lot that is on the 
internet about knots is theoretical or decorative, there was a link to the 
Army Field Manual on Rigging. See 
http://www.adtdl.army.mil/cgi-bin/atdl.dll/fm/5-125/ch2.pdf for a whole 
library of rigging knots.
