SKIP AHEAD YOU OVER ACHIEVER:

00:00 This subtle, unique knot is The Cross Knot, number 22 of the top 50 knots
00:10 Throw our crystalline tie over your neck with the blade on the right
00:19 Create the neck loop by crossing the blade over the tail
00:23 👇Take the blade underneath the tail, then down through the neck loop to the left
00:31 ✋Place your fingers over the knot and create the front loops by going around your fingers twice
00:44 Finish the knot by going up through the neck loop and down through the front loop
00:54 Tighten the knot as usual and then give the top a good tug up and adjust the very front loop to show the cross
01:11 Tighten the neck loop by holding the tail and pushing the knot up
01:27 This knot is also called the Christensen knot popularized by the tie maker Amanda Christensen
01:33 It looks best with solid ties because if there is too much pattern, you won’t even notice the cross
