2) Pass the wide end in the resulting loop, and then lower it down.

3) Pull the wide end of the knot on the left side.

4) Once again, pass the wide end to the loop from the top to the down.

5) Point the wide end of the tie to the right over the narrow one, as shown in the picture.

6) Lift the wide end and pass it through the loop for the third time, pull it forward.

7) Finally, carefully pull the wide end to tighten the knot and tighten the tie to the collar.

8) If the ends of the tie does not match, start from the very beginning, respectively, adjust the length of the wide and narrow ends.

Make sure that the tie fits nicely under the collar and align the knot exactly in the center.
