| Abstract: |
A device is provided for enabling a person to tie a necktie so that upon the completion of the knot and required adjusting the wide end will be positioned a predetermined distance below the narrow end of the tie. The device consists of a flat sheet on which are imprinted a plurality of sets of indicia. One set of indicia includes a plurality of spaced-apart numbers which are spaced from a locating point for indicating the length of the tie. Other sets of indicia comprise the same numbers as the first set, extend parallel to the first set, and are spaced a predetermined distance from a set of numbers which corresponds to the neck size of the wearer. The spacing of the numbers of the other sets from the numbers which indicate the neck size of the wearer varies depending upon the style of knot that is to be tied, for example, a Windsor, half-Windsor, or four-in-hand.
