   Inline splicing of one line into the midspan of the other works well   
   in nylon 3-strand laid rope, and the better the rope quality the   
   better and easier splicing works.   
      
   ----------------------------   
      
   That should be better than the grommet (ring) I suggested, because the   
   splice will be in line with the pull.   
   If the added piece is shorter the continuous main rope will bear all of a   
   centered load.
