The cravat which is indicated by the reterence character 8 is folded intermediate its ends, the central portion thereof being positioned at a point adjacent to the pin 6, the ends ot the cravat being brought up and over the body portion 5 as shown by Figure 2. The ends now forced down Iardly under the loop 5} formed by folding the cravat and the .ids are drawn until the eravattakes the "form of a tour-in-hand such as shown by Figure In this coi'idition, the cravat is positioned in. the usual place with respect to the collar and the cur ed ends of the body portion 5 are positioned under the folds of the collar with which the cravat is worn, the pin 6 having been positioned within the collar button forming a part of the device.
