Stylish tie knot for a narrow tie






Since I love narrow ties, I use the Half-Windsor self releasing variant for my ties. According to The 85 Ways to Tie a Tie (Thomas Fink and Yong Mao), the knot is tied





  • Li Ro Ci Lo Ri Co T (knot 7)
with a common variation being,
  • Li Ro Ci Ro Li Co T (knot 8).
the former is not self-releasing, while the latter is.
