take the knot piece length ways and fold as shown in the picture, its a little tricky and it doesn't fold as nice as you would think but dont worry once the tie is through it, it will all work out! haha

Place that piece onto the top of the tie raw edges together, pay close attention to the photo and what you need to do as its hard to explain with words but if it looks like the photo then your on the right track!

As show this is where you will sew!
