Knitted ties have a special place in a man's wardrobe. They fill the void when the invitation states "business casual" yet you wish to wear a tie. A knitted tie adds a dash of panache and an updated fashion edge that a simple open shirt does not provide.
The Okehampton Tie is a flat-ended tie and features a shaped design to provide a small neat knot. It is worked in a crisp cotton/linen yarn to enhance the texture of the reversible stitch and the length can be adjusted for different collar sizes.
