How to Tie Knots in Scarves

Keep yourself warm by tying a knot in your winter scarf.

A scarf adds warmth and style to your winter ensemble, but keeping it wrapped tightly around your neck in the winter time can be a tedious chore. Every frosty breeze that blows by seems bent on unraveling your hard work to stay warm. You can keep your favorite scarf from becoming unwrapped by learning to tie a knot in your scarf.
