With bow-ties becoming more fashionable of late, I’ve been keeping a copy of this illustration handy at the retail shop where I work. This makes it very easy for me to show my customers how to tie their knots and hopefully also directs them towards your page.

I was confused in the fourth (or is it forth?) and fifth panels.

I read this article, then went on youtube to find some videos explaining it. In my opinion, the trickiest part is holding one end while tucking in the other through the loop.

This video i found on youtube gives a simple and slow down demonstration on how to do the whole thing. And it’s only 2mins long :)

I’ve also heard (and generally follow) the rule that a bow tie should look well-tied, though not perfect. This would show that you do, indeed, know how to tie the bow tie, ensuring that it isn’t a pre-tied model. Also, nobody’s perfect, right?

Of the many Youtube videos available on this topic, I suggest How to tie a bow tie – fully explained.

It covers the topic in much greater detail and more successfully than any other.
