Instructions

Loop the Scarf
-
1
Gather the two ends of the scarf together in one hand. The scarf should form a loop on the other end.
-
2
Wrap the folded scarf around the back of your neck so that you have the loop on one side and the ends on the other. Bring the loop and the ends of the scarf to the front.

3
Place the gathered ends into the loop and pull down. You will end up with a sort of knot.
-
4
Adjust the tightness of the scarf and the placement of the knot by sliding it around your neck. You can wrap it as loosely or as tightly as you like; both ways look great.
