Hi I’ve got a big thick and long wooly scarf but I’m still trying to figure out how to do the style when its a big knot hanging slightly to the side without the ends/tassles hanging. Any clues?

My friends n I paint our own silk scarfs. When it’s cold we use them to keep our ears warm, they work great. Try wearing one under the heavy wool so you look n feel very good after taking the layers off.When it’s warmer they always look good.

i think so, i folded the scarf once, then i put the point as it said down under my neck after that, i took the end and just twisted them around the fabric by the back of my neck

Hi Gary,

For guys, try the first two methods: the Fold and Loop and the Basic Neck Wrap. For a more relaxed, masculine look, leave the scarf more loosely tied.

While some guys try the Square Tie, the look is very hipster-esque. I’d recommend steering clear of it.

Hope that helps, Gary!

Can men use any of these tieing methods, or some adaptation of them? I like wearing scarves with my outerwear, but I’m never quite sure how to wear/tie them. I usually just let them hang around my neck untied for fear that tieing them will look effeminate.

Any suggestions?

Great tips, Nuria, Inna, and Mimi! I’ve got to try Mimi’s rosette scarf folding trick

Good point about the weight of the scarves - these really are more appropriate for warmer temperatures. Here’s a couple of cold weather scarves worth a look:
