I stepped outside my comfort zone this morning and tied a different knot in my tie.
It’s asymmetrical, so I’m guessing it’s either a four-in-hand or a close relative thereof, but I can’t be sure because I have forgotten how one ties a four-in-hand and just improvised. I just googled diagrams but I have a problem reading knot diagrams.
My uncle used to come over to our house when he needed a tie tied and my father would tie it for him. When he got married, my father tied his tie.
I had to tie his tie for my father’s funeral. And my brother’s tie.
Except I can’t remember if my brother wore a tie to our father’s funeral. He might have worn a polo shirt and cowboy boots.
And pants.
But I tied his tie a couple times. Maybe for weddings.
Anyway here I sit with an asymmetrical knot.
I feel like a dog sticking his head out the window on the freeway.
