How To Tie Your Basic Tie

By Chris Gardner

Step 1: Grab a tie and wrap it around your neck, leaving a small amount on one side.

Step 2: Now, holding the smaller part in place, bring the longer part over the top.

Step 3: Taking the larger part, fold it under and back up over the smaller part of the tie.

Step 4: Now take the larger part and fold it back over itself.

Step 5: Take the larger part and once again go back under the tie and wrap around the smaller part of the tie.

Step 6: At this point, you take the tie and go back up and over the forming knot leaving a little room over the front of the knot for later.

Step 7: Go back around the smaller part of the tie and bring the rest of the tie through the space left in the previous step.

Step 8: Pull the rest of the remaining length down through the opening and adjust.
