How to Tie a Butterfly Necktie
- 1). Hang the tie around your neck with the slim end on the right and the fat end on the left. Cross the slim end over the broad end, so that they are angled in opposite directions (fat toward the right and slim toward the left).
- 2). Grab the fat end, which is underneath the slim, and pull it over and across to the left side again. Slip it through the neck loop on the right side from the bottom up. Pull it through completely so that it hangs over the neck loop and over the slim side of the tie.
- 3). Angle the broad end toward the right and swing it behind the knot, horizontally, so it winds up on the left side and then, keep twisting it around the knot until you wrap the front side of the knot too, making a full circle from where you started looping in the back.
- 4). From behind your knot and underneath the loop, pull the broad end through again, from your chest to your chin. Notice that when you pulled the tie around the entire perimeter of the knot, you created another layer. Once you've pulled the tie up through the neck loop in the previous step, instead of hanging it over the knot and slimmer side, slip it between the original knot and this second layer.
- 5). Pull slowly, so as not to make it too tight. Adjust the height of the knot and the size of the neck loop.
