This is fantastic! Makes me want to go out and buy a tie! I still have my Dad's tie collection so making one out of his will be very sentimental. Thanks for dreaming us a wonderful idea!

That is pretty awesome!  Since it is your first Instructable, you should mention it on the Rewards for New Authors page!

Clever lady--sewing the pocket to the interfacing is brilliant! And, I can see having a regular wardrobe of tie/pockets to go with various outfits. A simple, creative solution to a common problem--and one which just might thwart a mugger, to boot.

Nice idea! I chose not to include a phone pouch with mine as too much loading and swinging felt heavy after wearing all day.
