Here are some helpful scarf tying tips for those extra chilly days.

2) At the very bottom of both ends, tie an overhand knot
3) Tie another overhand knot to ensure that the first knot doesn’t slip
4) Take the loop and twist it so that it’s shaped like an “8”
5) Drape the bottom loop of the “8” over your head
1) Fold the scarf in half lengthwise
2) Drape folded scarf over shoulder, with the non-folded end significantly longer than the folded end
3) Fit the non-folded end into the loop created by the folded end, leaving space at the end of the fold
4) Twist the folded end over itself, forming an “8”
5) Fit the rest of the non-folded end into the second loop created by the twist
6) Adjust and balance out the scarf
1) Drape scarf over shoulder, with one end significantly longer than the other
2) Loop the longer end around your neck three times in the same direction
3) Fit the end when you loop through the third loop so that it’s dangling down underneath the loop
4) Fit the non-looped end over and into the third loop
