This linen stitch tie looks classy and smart with a casual dress look, with tidy slipped stitch edges and an attractive, textured and woven look from the linen stitch. The linen stitch creates a dense, non-stretchy fabric, giving this piece durability and the kind of stiffness you want in a necktie. Knit this tie in a cotton or linen worsted weight yarn to complement the look of the tie and it will be a great addition to the wardrobe of anyone looking for a trendy and dapper fashion accessory.
