A machine for automatically tying a four-in-hand necktie knot in a necktie, includes (1) a horizontal rotatable cylinder; (2) a hooking mechanism capable of pulling a left hand short segment of the necktie through a loop of a right hand long segment of the necktie hanging from the rotatable cylinder; (3) a finger mechanism capable of laterally moving the right hand long segment along the length of the rotatable cylinder; (4) a whirler mechanism capable of flipping an end of the right hand long segment around the rotatable cylinder and up through a space between the right hand long segment and the left hand short segment and the necktie support, and (5) an electronic and feedback control for operating various mechanisms in response to a sequence of voltage commands.
