How to Make Scarf Tie Knots

A scarf can be tied many different ways, the tie knot being one of them. The tie knot basically ties a scarf into a version of a man's tie. This is also referred to as a Windsor knot and here's how to tie one.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Large square scarf

1. Spread the scarf diagonally, like a diamond, on a flat surface.

2. Fold the bottom point up to the middle of the scarf.

3. Fold the opposite top point down to the opposite edge of the scarf that was created in Step 2.

4. Fold the bottom edge over, so that it is in line with the left and right points of the scarf.

5. Fold the top edge down to the newly formed bottom edge.

6. Fold the entire scarf over again, so that it is one thin strip of cloth, like a tie.

7. Wrap the scarf around the back of your neck, so that one end hangs slightly lower than the other.

8. Hold the short end in place and wrap the long end over and around it.

9. Wrap the long end over and around the short end again, this time placing two fingers between the short end and the knot.

10. Wrap the long end behind the knot and push it through the loop around your neck.

11. Push the long end through the front of the knot where your fingers are and pull it down to tighten.
