taut line hitch at the TENT end - bowline at the STAKE end -rather unconventional? Perhaps - BUT you don't need to bend down as far to adjust the tension this way AND you don't end up with the adjustable portion of the loop (around the peg) hammered into the ground - where it won't adjust until you yank the peg out! - been doing that combo for many, many years ....
