What Dwight says. Practice makes perfect. I can probably do it without a
mirror, it would just take me longer. Getting everything balanced out can take
a minute or two. A lot depends on the "hand", or the type of fabric the tie is
made of. Don't buy cheap bow ties - they're much harder to tie
Just keep practicing. That's what it takes. Eventually you will be,able to
do it with out a mirror.
