This sparkle of shades of brown includes a wool #necktie with a Victoria #knot. It's a sort of continuation of a four-in-hand, where you do an extra "loop around" before the final "fold over from back".
It's helpful if you want the four-in-hand look but a bit larger, or if your tie is too long for it.

It's somewhat sad to see that the #Nextcloud Calendar doesn't really “feel“ maintained.
It's still missing basic features like changing one instance of a recurring evening, changing order of different calendars or just choosing a default calendar.
Some of these issues are open for more than three years now. :-/
Anyone willing to take on a webdev challenge that would benefit a whole community? :D

This one even has a bounty of 125$ on it:

Wearing this elephant pattern #tie with a Hanover #necktie #knot today.
If someone wonders about the #photography technique it's aperture mode with a fully open lens, with the #exposure compensation set to +2/3 stop, which is about right for a #contrejour shot against my bedroom window in the morning.
Bringing this up as I thought the #photo turned out extra well this morning.
Noticed now this was a bit blurry because I'd left my camera on a fixed low ISO. It's a pretty nice new tie so will try to do another one on the next green day to show it a bit better.
I have been back to work a couple of days but too jet lagged to bother with new tie knot pictures. I think from now I'll do these only when I have something (however little though) to say about it.
This is the first time wearing a new #Thai silk #necktie with a #Naga pattern. I bought it after wearing out one of my previous two green ties.
#necktie #knot special edition: during vacation found this in my late grandfather's wardrobe.
It's been kept tied, with a Half-Windsor knot.
I notice it's very short, reaches my navel (we were the same size).
This might reflect him starting to wear ties before strict rules about tie length and number of dimples &c. made it into fashion.

"Git is already federated & decentralized"
As a determined novice, I like this old school approach to collaboration with git. https://drewdevault.com/2018/07/23/Git-is-already-distributed.html
Using a Hanover #knot today (like yesterday). This time with a thinner #Thai silk #necktie.
My wife seems to prefer the symmetric triangular knots, though I get bored with them in the long run.
If I had to wear a uniform that stipulates a Windsor knot (like a lot of military uniforms I believe), I might use this one instead, as in outward appearance it's more or less the same, just neater.
Additional comments on this knot:
• This knot is sort of three oriental knots over each other.
• A half Windsor is kind of like two oriental knots over each other
• A half Windsor has no similarity to a Windsor, and it's certainly not a half of it it (in terms of complexity it would be like two thirds).
• Some people call a Windsor a double Windsor for some reason. Makes no sense, though I'd like to see a Windsor on top of a Windsor. (Even repeating a half Windsor would be impractically large).
