2010-01-20 - How to tie a windsor knot


So this is another one of my grown-up skills I had to learn. I never really learned how to tie a tie officially. I sorta figured out a half windsor and that got me through life until now- but it was time for a real knot. I've tried using those terrible instructional videos online before- and those useless diagrams. Never really got good results.

After Pat donated a bunch of ties to me he felt obliged to teach me how to tie it properly. He showed me how in a few minutes and I just repeated it a few times. I tried again the next day just to make sure I remembered- and I'll probably have to do it periodically just to refresh my memory. Or I just need to find excuses to wear ties more often.

I'm not going to try to write out an explanation or instructions because they would be terrible and useless. Here's a crappy diagram.
