Keep doing this till you get either a tight triangle, or an unfortunate rectangle in which case you would need to restart from the beginning. Getting the triangle needs tightening in a specific manner that I never got the hang of, but I think the person in the video you had shown actually illustrates that part... Myti P.S. Hi!

I do not know how to tie a tie, and despite any attempts I have made to learn, I haven't managed it yet. More power to you. Nice tie with a very nice-colored shirt.

Those are amazing! I wish I could do that! Maybe I should try some time!! This is off topic - but I had to read a 'classic' novel for school and chose to read 'A Room Without a View' by E.M Forster - I was wondering what your favorite classic novel is? Wow!
