How to tie a tie: Four in Hand

This is the simplest of the three common tie knots. It is slightly asymmetrical and has a casual look. It is great for narrow collars and wide ties.

jeffreyf posted an instructable for how to tie a Four in Hand and his own knot, but didn't cover the Half Windsor or Full Windsor. Since all of these knots use many of the same moves, I'm including a Four in Hand in this series.

The pattern to remember is "Over, Under, Around, and Through".

Step 1: Ready?

Lift your collar and place the tie around your neck with the front side facing out. The wider end of the tie should be on your right.
