As someone who was never shown how to tie a tie as a kid growing up I gotta say thanks. I have a wedding to go to tomorrow and I'm making an effort. I've always looked sloppy wearing a tie - but after a couple of tries I've got it looking pretty sharp. This was really useful and fast so yeah. Nice one.

My father taught me the Windsor knot when I was 12 years old, almost 60 years ago, and it's the absolute best way to tie a tie. One more addition to this knot can take place when you loop the wide end through the last time so it finally hangs in front: when you pull gently you can come up with a nice notch or dimple in the tie just at the knot that adds a nice finishing touch. It's a beautiful symmetrical knot.

It being symmetrical is the reason why i like this knot. A lot of people hate this knot because of that, but a four in hand or any other asymmetrical knot just looks awful abd sloppy as if you dont know how to tie your tie properly.
Thanks for the clear instruction and dry humor! I used to tie the very basic ‘Oriental Knot’ but a lot of people commented on how bad it looked. The full Windsor used to intimidate me but I finally got it down! Took me more like 5 minutes and a few tries (thin end was way too long first 3 attempts), but I got it and I look sharp 😎
Truly the best tutorial I have seen. Its at the right speed and clear took me only 2 minutes to learn to tie the windsor with this video and I struggled for over an hour piror just to be unsuccessful. Really useful

I'm stuck on the second step after you make the first shoulder. It doesn't come out like yours help 😣 also it doesn't be the back side of the tie, it would always come out to the front when I do the second step

Try to male sure the tie doesn’t get twisted during the creation of the shoulders. This could leave it facing the wrong way.

Patrick, I've been tying ties since I was a teenager, but have only recently become interested in tying full Windsor knots (after watching several seasons of Suits on Netflix! 😁). I have looked at several KZread videos on how to tie them. Most of the presenters did an exemplary job in tying them, but I just wasn't getting the tie right, at least not consistently. When I ran across yours, your explanation about how wrapping the blade of the tie to make shoulders for the knot was a game changer for me, it all made sense! My only suggestion would be for the users to pinch the very top of the tie as they pull it through the final time to give a dimple. Your presentation was brilliant! Thank you. Great job...
