Abstract: A necktie holder and method of making the same. The holder is made of two pieces including a one-piece sleeve and a one-piece retainer. The one-piece sleeve is generally frusto-conical with a large diameter top and a smaller diameter bottom. A slot in the sleeve extends from the top to the bottom for receiving the both ends of the necktie. A one-piece retainer is placed in the slot to hold the necktie therein. As the sleeve and retainer are fitted loosely about the necktie, the holder is easily moved up and down to adjust its position. The sleeve is formed by a single sheet of metal or plastic that is rolled into a frusto-conical shape with a vertical slot therein. The retainer is constructed from a one-piece section of material having an H-shaped cross section.
