The four-in-hand knot is a simple and versatile necktie knot that is suitable for most occasions. It is also known as the “schoolboy knot” or the “simple knot” because of its ease of tying.
The four-in-hand knot is created by making a small loop with the wide end of the tie, then passing the narrow end through the loop and pulling it tight. The knot is then tightened by pulling on the wide end of the tie. The four-in-hand knot is a symmetrical knot that creates a triangular shape. It is a relatively small knot, which makes it a good choice for narrow ties.
