Four in hand knot

(Redirected from Four-in-hand knot)

The Four-in-Hand knot is a method of tying a man's necktie. Also known as a Simple knot , the Four-in-Hand is believed to be the most popular method of tying ties due to its simplicity. The knot dates back to England in the days of the coach-and-four where the men driving the coach knotted their ties in this manner to help prevent them from flapping in the wind. The knot produced by this method is on the narrow side and appropriate for all occassions.
