The Half-Windsor is a popular knot used to tie a necktie. It creates a symmetrical and triangular shape, making it suitable for various occasions, from formal events to everyday wear. This knot is easier to tie than the full Windsor knot, making it a preferred choice for many. To tie a Half-Windsor, start with the wide end of the tie on your right side, crossing it over the narrow end on the left. Then, loop the wide end behind the narrow end and bring it up through the neck loop. Finally, pull it down through the front loop and adjust for a neat finish.
