Don't know how to tie a bow tie? I didn't either, and you can tell by the look on my face how dissapointed I was. But then I learned, and now I wear bow ties all the time.
First lets talk about the bow tie's shape a little so you know whats going on in the later steps of the instructable.

This is shown in the picture, from a view of the bottom of a tied bow tie.
