NOTES

1. Read the pattern carefully before starting.
2. This pattern is worked in the round - in a very long tube that will be flattened and blocked at the end to form the necktie. Do not join rounds unless otherwise stated. Use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of the round and move as work progresses.
3. Asterisks * * indicate repeat instructions between asterisks as many times as directed or repeat at specified locations.
