The Four-in-Hand Knot was named after the Gentlemen's Club in the early 20th century. The “Quarter” knot is probably the most common of all known knots. Its popularity is due to its simplicity and versatility. “Quarter” is easy to tie, it is even, conical, slightly asymmetrical. If you decide to remember only one method of tying a tie, then “Quarter” is your choice.

Instructions on how to tie a tie with a “Quarter” knot
- Throw the inside of the tie over yourself, with the seams inward. The wide end is on the right and the narrow end is on the left. The tip of the small end should be extended to a level just above your navel (this value may vary depending on your height, length and thickness of the tie). We will work with the wide end of the tie.
- Position the wide end with the bumpy end, forming a crosshair.
- Wrap the wide end of the tie around the narrow side to the right and left.
- Form the front of the tie knot by sliding the wide end horizontally from left to right.
- Pull the wide end towards the neck and pass it under the collar (tie) formed.
- Pass through the loop on the front of the knot that you formed in step 4.
- Pull the wide end downward, tightening slightly. Adjust the resulting knot so that it fits evenly into your collar.
