How to Tie a Tie (Four-in-Hand Knot)
✅ You’ll Need:
-
A regular necktie
-
A mirror (optional but helpful)
🔢 Step-by-Step Instructions:
-
Start with the wide end on your right and the narrow end on your left.
-
The wide end should hang lower than the narrow end (about 12 inches lower).
-
-
Cross the wide end over the narrow end to the left.
-
Bring the wide end behind the narrow end and back to the right.
-
Cross the wide end over the front again from right to left.
-
Pull the wide end up through the loop around your neck (from underneath).
-
Tuck the wide end down through the front loop that you just made.
-
Tighten the knot by holding the narrow end and sliding the knot up.
-
Adjust it neatly by centering the knot and making it symmetrical.
🎯 Pro Tips:
-
The tip of the tie should reach your belt buckle.
-
Keep the knot tight but not stiff.
-
Practice a few times for a smoother look.
