*******I get a lot of emails about tying scarves so I’m sharing this post from last year again. This is 3 ways I like to tie my scarf. Hope it helps!
Good morning! Today I’m sharing 3 easy ways to tie a scarf. You know, I love wearing scarves and I’ve been wearing these three ways a lot over the last month.
1. The Double Loop Wrap
Place the scarf around your neck with the ends hanging in the back. Loop the ends of the scarf around and back to the front. Tie the two ends together with a simple knot to make the second layer.
2. The Pretzel
Fold scarf in half and wrap it around your neck. You’ll have a loop on one side and the two ends on the other. Pull one end through the loop. Twist the loop and pull the second end through. Adjust as desired.
3. Neck Tie Knot (tied like a man’s neck tie).
This is perfect for women who don’t like a scarf wrapped tight around their neck.
Put the scarf around your neck with the ends to the front (I have one end a couple of inches longer than the other). Take the longest end and fold over the other two times. Take this same end up through the back and through the loop you created. Pull the ends taunt.
There are so many scarves to choose from: thick, thin, square, rectangular, infinity and more. Scarves can add color and texture to your outfit and if the weather is cold can help keep you warm.
Have you tried any of these ways to tie a scarf? What’s your favorite way to tie a scarf?

Have a blessed day!
Now that it is chilly out I am wearing a scarf everyday. I love how many ways you can tie them and I never thought of the neck tie knot. This is good to know. Thank you and happy Friday!
This is wonderful, Cyndi! Knowing how to tie them and giving great options for wearing scarves is priceless. Love option #2. It’s most typically how I wear mine.
When wearing a turtle neck, I like using Option 3. I haven’t tried Option 2 yet, but plan on testing it out this weekend. 🙂
It would be better if you did this on a video to show step by step. I love scarves.
God Bless
Thanks, Cyndi. It seems as if I always tie my scarves the same way. This tutorial is great!
Thanks Cyndi. I used the Pretzel today after reading your blog this morning! I love scarves and have oodles of them. Love the extra color they add to an outfit.
I love scarves and wear them a lot! I have used all of these and several others as well. They add so much to a simple outfit. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Love these different looks. Any hints on what to wear these different styles with in terms of blouses, sweaters, jackets. What suits which best? I think that’s the hardest part. thanks for revisiting this.
Thank you! All look great. I hardly ever wear a scarf because I feel like I look like Carol Burnett as the mop bucket lady…LOL! Been trying to be a little more positive as I try them out this fall. Love your blog, BTW!
Thank you for your post today! I have been wanting to learn new ways on tying my scraves. Love your animal print scarf you posted yesterday. I love the leopard and zebra print. Thanks for all your inspirational quotes! God Bless!
