How to Tie a Four-In-Hand Knot

A simple walk through how to tie a Four in Hand knot. It's a versatile knot everyone can learn.



Here are the steps:
1. Start with the wide end of the tie slightly lower than the thin end.
2. Put the wide end over the thin end.
3. Bring the wide end under the thin end.
4. Bring the wide end back over the thin end.
5. Hold the knot in place and bring the wide end under the loop without pulling it tight. You need a new loop in the front of the tie for the next step.
6. Now pull the wide end through the loop between by the last crossover and the rest of the knot.
7. Hold the thin end and push the knot up. Adjust the form of the knot by pulling on the wide end. Now pull down your collar. You're ready to go!

Too short?
If the tie is too short start over with the wide side down lower in the beginning.

Don't like the form of the knot?
Try to keep the folds tight while tying the tie by holding on to the knot area during the whole process.
