Okay, stand in front of your mirror and follow the instructions below. Remember practice makes perfect knots! 1. End "A" should extend about 12 inches below end "B". Cross end "A" over top of end "B". 2. Fold end "A" behind end "B". 3. Bring wide end "A" up. 4. Wrap end "A" through the loop. 5. Bring end "A" across the front and over end "B". 6.

If not, keep trying. When completed, the ends of the tie should be of equal length or the wide end of the tie should be a bit longer than the narrow end. If you find that the tie appears too short after completing the Half Windsor it may be that your tie isn’t long enough to accommodate this knot. Either find another longer tie or try a different knot other than a Windsor.
