title: "Trayvon tie: Designer Notes"

There's about a million patterns for ties on the internet, so why make another one, right?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Well, this started hen I wanted to make a tie but every pattern I found was cutting corners.
|
||
|
|
Specifically, they all put the seam between the back and the font at the exact tip.
|
||
|
|
Which, sure, is easier to make. But that's not how ties are supposed to be made.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So, I designed this pattern so I could make ties that looks professional, and
|
||
|
|
not home-made.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I gave it the name `trayvon` in memory of [Trayvon
|
||
|
|
Martin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trayvon_Martin) and more generally to
|
||
|
|
honour the memory of all victims of brutality at the hands of people in a
|
||
|
|
position of authority.
