How do you tie a neck tie?

Question asked at WikiAnswers

Steps

1. Stand in front of the mirror with your collar up, your shirt buttoned all the way to the top, and the tie around your neck. The thick end of the tie should be on the side of your dominant hand. So if you're right-handed, the wider end should be hanging on your right side.

2. Look for a seam on the front of the narrow end of the tie.

3. Move the thick end over the narrow end so they cross each other on the seam.
