Scarves were initially worn by men around their neck or tied to their belt. The scarf developed into a real fashion accessory by the early 19th century for both men and women. Scarves do not judge you and they have a tendency to stick around your body. A shorter scarf is the best for neckties and basic drapes while a longer scarf is better for more complicated knots. Any heavy winter scarves are ideal for a simple toss and tuck but feel free to try each knot with a bunch of different scarves to see how it looks. Here some favourite methods and scarf tying ideas you can try.

Loop with a tie
- Step 1: Loop the scarf around your neck once. Make sure one end is longer than the other (the longer side will be the one to create the knot).
- Step 2: Bring the longer end behind and then over the shorter end to create a makeshift loop.
- Step 3. Feed the longer end up and into this loop to form a knot. Tighten the knot and push up (like a tie).
