How to tie a Truelove Necktie Knot

The Truelove knot is a complex knot that is divided into four distinct quadrants, it sometimes resembles a heart, or a cross, or t-shape. The knot was invented by Elliot Truelove. It is tied with the little end and the extra fabric is tucked into the collar like the Trinity or Eldredge knots. This is probably the most complicated knot to tie and it will take considerable practice. But it is certainly worth the effort. If you want to take it up a notch, consider doing it with a stripped tie, Eiliot calls that the Pinwheel knot and you can see it here: • Truelove Knot - Pinwheel

    Hey Alex, as much as I appreciate Elliot's invention of a couple knots, you're still the best, man, by far... Could you please make a video about the 'Ellie' knot? It's Elliot's variation of the Eldredge, that instead of getting the remainder of the tie around the collar, it pulls it down, like a 'normal' knot. It'd be awesome if you did that

    It takes a bit of playing with a stripped tie to get the pin wheel. I have to agree that it has to be a thinner tie. I just tried with a two different patterned ended tie (I don't know how to describe the ties like the Magnetie) and it looked funky due to how it's bulky in material.

    Hello, Alex Krasny. I noticed you were showing the wrong steps to tying the Truelove knot. Well, not that they were wrong, but they were different from the steps Elliot Truelove would take. Always assuming the big end is on the right side... In both of Elliot's videos, his first step is to wrap around the back of the big end with the little end and come up over the top through the front, ending up on the back side. Here's a diagram based on his method: s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/8c/68/12/8c6812f11b2e9f0d9cf95b4285cbe0be.jpg In your video, your first step is to simply take the little end over the top from behind the big end. However, even with these different takes on the knot, both methods produce similar results. The only real difference is that Elliot's method has the little end come out through the right side, while your method has it come out from the left side. And since most knots tied with the little end have the little end end up on the right side (well, I'm only taking the Eldredge and Trinity knots as examples), I'm more inclined to believe that Elliot's method is the correct method. While I like your video more for it's better lighting and presentation (ramble free!), I'm sure you wouldn't want there to be a divide on how to tie this already difficult knot. I'm sure this was just an oversight. After all, you've made so many great tie knot tutorials that there's bound to be at least one mistake. Cheers!
