Step 3Prepping Your Ties
You'll need to open up your ties and take out the lining.
(FIRST PICTURE)
First, take off the label with the seam-ripper, being careful not to rip the tie. There are three main ways these labels are attached-- the short ends sewn on; a knot in each corner; glue. If you can pick off the glue, or don't mind the residue, fine... otherwise discard that tie.
Next, see that the wide end of the tie has a thick stitch just below where the label was, and the narrow end has a similar one. Seam-rip those and tug out and discard the threads.
