Why my Four-in-Hand tie knot is always tilted?

October 23rd, 2008   Filed under English entries, Life

Believe it or not, I only have one tie in the first three years of my career and I’ve never untied that tie even once. This morning, I want to wear a new tie to meet the client , but the trouble is that I don’t know how to tie a tie. How rediculous!

So I searched Google and found some pictures teaching how to tie a tie. I chose to follow one which seemed to be the simplist aomnge all the ways to tie a tie, called Four-in-Hand. It’s seems very easy: five steps and you get the knot. But wait a minute … Why the knot is tilted? I tried this method for half an hour but still don’t know where the problem is. Crab!




So I thought a introduction vedio may be help. So I searched Youtube and find a video on how to tie a four-in-hand tie. But I was suprised to find that even in this vedio the final product is a tilted knot too!

That’s really strange. I mean, how can a popular method of tie knot come out with a tilted knot. Where can be my mistake? Can anyone help?
