I just take a stitch and clip off the thread about 1/4" away from the stitch. I sometimes take two stitches in the same place (one over the other) if I have trouble getting the stitch to not pull back out. I wouldn't knot it. but you could. If you make sure you don't go in and come out in the same place your stitch should hold.
