Necktie with Bow free pattern

A girl named Melissa asked me to share the pattern for this necktie with bow and I'm very happy to do so!
Here you can see it in two different colors: black and white and brick orange.
The pattern it's very very easy:

Materials:
For the bow:
Scraps of wool in any color you like. (DK weight yarn)
4.00mm hook
For the chocker:
Scraps of wool in any color you like. (DK weight yarn)
5.50mm hook

Bow:
Ch20, hdc in third ch from hook, and in each ch across, turn.
Row 1: ch2, hdc in next st and in each across, turn.
Rows 2-5: repeat row1.
Cut yarn and weave in ends.
Bow centre:
Ch8, hdc in third ch from hook, and in each ch across.
Sew bow center around bow, gathering the middle of the bow and joining edges of bow centre.

Chocker:
Ch 54, dc in third chain from hook and in each chain across.
Cut yarn and wave in all ends.

Finishing:
Sew the bow on the fifth dc of one end of the chocker.
Sew a button on the third dc at the same extremity where the bow is, but on the other side.
Enjoy your new neck tie!
