Step 6Wrap the second loop

 

Wrap the longer end carefully over and down with your dominant hand, then around behind the first loop. Do not twist the tie--wrap it around.

Now insert the longer end through the knot: push a loop with your finger through the central knot, and tug it through. This creates the second loop. Hold the first loop with your dominant hand, and carefully pull the new loop a little tighter. Be careful not to pull the ends out.

When pulling the knot tight, grasp the loops and ends equally in both hands. Pull evenly. Sometimes a bow will remain unruly until you have cleaned the knot. Then you can adjust it into the final shape.
