Four in Hand Knot
The Four in
Hand Knot makes for a narrow, more discreet and
slightly asymmetrical tie knot. It is best suited
for a standard button-down dress shirt and works
best with wide ties made from heavy fabrics.
While this
tie knot can be worn by anyone, it looks especially
well on men with shorter necks as the knot's rather
narrow and elongated form stretches the perceived
height of the neck a tiny bit.
To tie the
Four in Hand Knot, select a tie of your choice and
stand in front of a mirror. Then simply follow the
steps below:
|

|
1)
The wide end "W" should extend about 12
inches below the narrow end "N". Cross
the wide end "W" over the narrow end
"N". |
|

|
2)
Turn the wide end "W" back underneath
the narrow end "N". |
|

|
3)
Continue by bringing the wide end "W"
back over in front of the narrow end "N"
again. |
|

|
4)
Pull the wide end "W" up and through the
loop around your neck. |
|

|
5)
Hold the front of the knot loosely with
your index finger and bring the wide end
"W" down through the front knot. |
|

|
6)
Remove your finger and tighten the knot
carefully to the collar by holding the
narrow end "N" and sliding the knot up. |
That's it! That is all there is to the Four in Hand
Knot. You will quickly learn to tie this necktie
knot in less and less time every time you practice
it. Just keep going, my friend!
