How do I tie a scarf like this?

Ann in New England

I am scarf-challenged.
Can someone point me to a video or instructions on how to tie a scarf like this look?

I happened to see this on Pinterest yesterday:

50 ways to tie a scarf

I would experiment with the scarf, they are all so different. It's hard to say what to do until you can feel it.

You coukd also check out MaiTai's Picture Book. Her blog has loads of scarf tying info. This looks like a fairly easy one - I'm sure she has something similar.

That looks like the Layered Knot from the pinterest video done around the outside of the shirt collar.

Here's another video with lots of great ideas too

I tried to pause at the end where all the knots are shown together, but (k)not seeing that exact one

It's not even tied. It's just looped around the neck with the two ends arranged under the loop. It wouldn't work well with a slippery fabric.

Like JR said, she just looped it once around the neck and put the ends through the loop from above, the arranged it just so. I sometimes do this, it works well with my cotton scarves that already are a bit creased and therefore more voluminous.

Woot! I think I can even pull it off. Thanks, JR and Astrid for setting me straight, and thanks CindyH, MNSara and missvee for the great scarf tying links. I'm going to go sit in front of the mirror and play.

Have fun! I wear this sort of loose knot all the time in the winter. I think the ends are probably stuffed through the front loop once, but it's hard to tell from the picture.
