That's a round turn and a cow hitch ! Nice try though ! Your first half hitch goes over your rope and you reversed the second half hitch by starting under your rope ! Both half hitches must be done in the same direction !
Don't copy this people, it is not a round turn and two half hitches, it's a round turn and a lark's head/cow hitch. Both hitches need to go the same way.

Nice catch. Ill be more careful in the future
It is for the second hitch?
Round turn and a cow hitch. Not a very good captain.
All good captains have a slip up now and then. This just counts as another knot I’ve learned.
Thanks Captain!
