Hi, Tie it just like a regular tie -- except -- the very last step where the tie end is tucked into the knot and pulled down -- don't tuck it in. Just let it fall over the top of the knot. That lets the top part flare out a bit instead of being held snug in the knot. Put 'cravat' in your search engine, and you'll probably get loads of pages with it illustrated. Or 'tie a cravat'.
