The knot that will be taught is called a Pratt knot, aka the Shelby Knot. It is a simple, easy to do knot that looks good with almost any shirt and tie combination.
Step 1) Start with the tie inside out, and the
wide end about a foot further down than the
narrow end.
Step 2) Cross the
wide end under the
narrow end.
Step 3) Make a knot by bringing the wide end up and through the intersection of both ends.
See the picture below, it will make more sense.
Step 4) Experiment a little to tighten and raise the knot up to your collar.
Step 5) Once the knot is raised, cross the
wide end back
over the
narrow end and bring it up through the collar, as shown.
Step 6) Now, take the
wide end you just pulled through and bring it down
through the loop, on top of the
narrow end.
Step 7) Now, tighten and adjust accordingly, and you're done!
