The tie was inspired by the book Stitch and Bitch. You can learn to increase and decrease easily with this knitting book. To give a short summary of how I made this tie. I started with a single stitch, increased it by two stitches on the next row and so on and so forth until it looked like a triangle. Then I started decreasing the stitches to the size I wanted and then kept knitting to the length of the tie I wanted. DONE. Goodbye!
