HOW TO TIE ADOUBLE WINDSOR KNOT

By Dianna Mitchell

1.) Pop your shirt collar up.

2.) Place the tie around your neck, tag-side down against your chest Make the thinner end hang a

foot from the neck(depending on the length of the tie)

direction is your preference

3.) Cross the wider side over the thinner side

4.) Take the wider end up and behind and through the back of the neck loop that has been established from this step. Pull the wider end all the way

through the neck loop and down – laying it on top of your hand.

5.) Take the wider side and wrap it around the back of the entire knot (in the same direction), and take it through the front of the neck loop. Pull straight down, flat against

the back of your knot

:: TIME OUT ::Here, you should have the inside of your triangle-shaped knot if done correctly. This is a great point to

shape the knot into the triangle you want to see as an end result.

6.) Wrap the wider side around the front of the knot to the back, completely covering the inside knot.

7.) Once the wider side is back behind the knot, bring it up and through the back of the neck look. Pull it down flat against the

front of the covered knot.

8.) Bring the wider side up and pull it through the space between the knot’s front cover and the front of the knot itself.

9.) Begin a repetitive, alternative action of pulling the wider side to tighten it around your neck and shaping the knot as it is tighten to the throat. Be sure the thinner side

remains hidden behind the wider side.

10.) Pull your collar down, adjust as needed, and admire your work.

CONGRATULATIONS…YOU’VE TIED A TIE INTO A DOUBLE WINDSOR KNOT!!

If you want more length in your finished look, start completely over by pulling the neck loop

apart until the knot falls out. This time, reduce the length of the thinner/shorter side, adding more

length to the longer/wider side.

If you still don’t get your desired length, you may need to purchase a longer tie.

Thanks for watching!
