The Windsor knot, sometimes referred to as a full Windsor (or misleadingly as a double Windsor) to distinguish it from the half-Windsor, is a knot used to tie a necktie. As with other common necktie knots, the Windsor knot is triangular, and the wide end of the tie drapes in front of the narrow end. The Windsor is a wider knot than most common ...
Instructions for tying. Tie an overhand knot at the end of a rope but do not tighten the knot down. Pass the end of the line through the loop created by the first overhand knot. Tighten the knot down while sliding it into place at the end of the line. Be sure to leave some tail sticking out from the end of the knot.
Tying. The four-in-hand knot is tied by placing the tie around the neck and crossing the broad end of the tie in front of the narrow end. The broad end is folded behind the narrow end and brought forward on the opposite side, passed across the front horizontally, folded behind the narrow end again, brought over the top of the knot from behind, tucked behind the horizontal pass, and the knot ...
The mathematics. The discovery of all possible ways to tie a tie depends on a mathematical formulation of the act of tying a tie. In their papers (which are technical) and book (which is for a lay audience, apart from an appendix), the authors show that necktie knots are equivalent to persistent random walks on a triangular lattice, with some constraints on how the walks begin and end.
Half-Windsor knot. The half-Windsor knot, also known as the single Windsor knot, [1] is a way of tying a necktie which produces a neat, triangular knot. It is larger than the four-in-hand knot and Pratt knot, but smaller than the Windsor knot. The half-Windsor is derived from the Windsor in that it is only brought up around the loop on one side ...

The photograph shown does not actually show a true Windsor Knot. A Windsor Knot is a symetrical knot that forms a perfect triangle and looks best with a cutaway collar. The exploded view graphic actually shows a Hanover Knot which requires 9 moves to the Windsor's 8 and starts under the thin length instead of over.
