1. Simple Cowl-Neck Knot

HOW TO DO IT:

• Start with the scarf draped around your neck with one end shorter than the other (this works best with a rectangular scarf)
• Wrap it once around your neck
• Tie it in a knot
• Pull the wrapped portion of the scarf up and over so it hides the knot

2. The Loop-Through Knot

HOW TO DO IT:

• Start with the scarf draped around your neck with one end shorter than the other (this works best with a rectangular scarf)
• Pull the longer end over the shorter
• While holding the scarf in place, pull the scarf back under the shorter end
• Then loop that end from underneath up and over and into the loop
• Pull and tighten

3. The Figure Eight

HOW TO DO IT:

• Start with the scarf folded in half (use a rectangular scarf for best results)
• Drape the scarf around your neck
• Take one end and pull it through the loop
• Twist the loop
• Pull the second end through the loop

4. The Drape and Knot

HOW TO DO IT:

• Start with the scarf draped around your neck with one end shorter than the other (use an oversize blanket scarf)
• Wrap it once around your neck
• Take the top corner of the longer end of the scarf (leaving the bottom end hanging) and tie it to the bottom corner of the shorter end
