Then said portion 3 is folded wzi-rdly over said loops, passion the end of back to the right forming loop or how 4., said. underlying portion under the body porthen back to the left forming loop ln tion thereof, then through said first loop,

some cases I prefer to complete the bow and then drawing said end to the left and tie with these two loops or bows 4: and'5, but said second loop to the right to complete in. other cases I form a third loop or bow 6 the bow tie. by folding the ribbon back again to the 2. That improvement in the art of formri ht, Fig. 1. ing a, bow tie comprising the following '5 hose and the later steps may all be persteps: Laying the right end portion of a.
