Step 1
Place the object you want to tie the bow to in the center of a length of ribbon.

Step 2
Bring the two ends up to the top and tie a snug, simple overhand knot.

Step 3
Form a loop of one end of the ribbon and hold it in your right hand.
-
Step 4
Repeat with the other end and hold it in your left hand.
-
Step 5
Tie another simple knot using the loops.
-
Step 6
Try this alternate method: Form a loop with one end of the ribbon.
-
Step 7
Wrap the other end around the first loop and, creating a second loop, pull the ribbon through the center of the knot.
-
Step 8
Make sure the loops are the same size.
