Abstract: A necktie includes a single-piece tie defining a display area and a knot area with the display area having a given pattern and the knot area having a pattern different from the given pattern. The one-piece tie can be woven or printed to produce the patterns. The tie can have a single-piece display-knot portion and a single-piece tail portion to be joined together. The tail portion can have a pattern, preferably, the same as the given pattern. A method of constructing a necktie includes cutting a tie from a single-piece of fabric having a given pattern at a display area and a pattern different from the given pattern at a knot area. The tie is folded lengthwise and is connected together at long edges. The edge-connected tie is turned inside out. Also, a single-piece display-knot portion can define the display and knot areas with the display-knot portion joined to a tail portion also preferably cut from a single-piece of fabric.
