There are many different tie knots for many different situations. Here’s one of my favorites. The “Prince Albert.” Named after Prince Albert and nothing else possible 😰 Here is how to tie a Prince Albert Knot.

This is a pretty easy tie knot to try. The Prince Albert Knot is oddly named because there’s no evidence to suggest that Prince Albert ever actually wore it. None the less, I love that extra fold you get with this knot. Its small size and slightly asymmetric appearance makes it a perfect complement to narrow collared shirts. Watch how I tie the Prince Albert knot.

HOW TO TIE A PRINCE ALBERT KNOT

1. Start with the wide end of the tie on the right and the small end on the left. The tip of the small end should rest slightly above your belly-button (this will vary depending on your height and the length & thickness of your tie). Only move the active (wide) end.
2. Wide end over the small end to the left.
3. Under the small end and to the right.
4. Across the front and to the left.
5. Under the small end and to the right.
6. Across the front and to the left.
7. Up into the neck loop from underneath.
8. Down through both loops in the front.
9. Tighten the knot by pulling down on the wide end. Slide the knot up & adjust. The first loop should show slightly underneath the second loop.
