Abstract

A permanently knotted necktie comprises an elongated necktie body having a front face and a rear face, a permanent necktie knot and an extensible strap for detachably fastening the necktie around a person's neck. The permanent necktie knot and the necktie body may be formed from a single strip of material or the knot and body may be formed from separate strips of material. In the former case, the knot is formed by folding one end of the strip material back onto the front face of the body and then folding the free ends of the folded-back portion around the body and fastening them together at the rear face. In the latter case, the knot is formed by folding one end of the body strip material back onto the rear face of the body and then encircling the knot strip material around the folded-back portion and fastening together the ends of the knot strip material at the rear face.
