1. Bandana Style Technique

If you have a larger scarf that you’d like to tie around your neck without the bulkiness, the bandana style is a great way to do it. Simply fold it into a triangle, and bring the two smaller ends around your neck. Find out all the details over at Cort In Session’s blog.

2. Tartan Poncho

If you have a giant blanket scarf, then you’ll love this genius tying technique. Drape it around your shoulders and then tie a belt around your waist. This style will provide some extra warmth for your arms too! Find out more over at Karamode’s website. 

3. Over Under Style

Here’s a clever style for a long skinny scarf that is thin and flowy. The key is to fold it in half first, and then drape that half around your neck and tuck the ends through in alternating ways. Head on over to One Good Thing By Jillee to check out all the info on this technique.

4. Belted Blanket Scarf

Here’s another cool way to incorporate a belt with your scarf. Start with a large blanket scarf and fold it in half so it forms a triangle. Then simply drape it around your neck and belt it. Make your way over to Life With Emily to find out more about this fun look.

5. Half-Tied

This one is shown with a blanket scarf, but it would work with any square scarf. Begin by folding it in half into a triangle shape, and wrap it all the way around your neck. Then loosely tie the ends, and you’re finished! Check out two other great styles at Classy Sassy.

6. Bow Style

For an extra feminine touch to your outfit, give this one a try. This style done with a large silk scarf, but a similar look could be achieved with a smaller one too. Fold it in into a triangle, grasp clumps from the two sides and wrap a hair tie around it! Found here. 

7. Woven Scarf Knot

This scarf tying technique is a bit more complicated, but it sure will look cool once you master it! The key is to fold the scarf in half first, and then loop the ends through in a certain way. Find out exactly how to do it by checking out this video at Sidewalk Ready.

8. Knotted Scarf

This scarf has the look of a knot, which it is, but it has a bit more to it than just a plain old double knot. Here, you’ll start with a single knot on one side and then slip the other un-knotted side through it. Head on over to Good Housekeeping to see three other ways to tie a scarf.

9. Bow Tie

This style looks like a giant bow… so cute! For this one, you can use any scarf that’s longer than it is wide. Begin by grasping one end and making it into a circle, then pulling the other end up and around. Check out the full photo tutorial at Yet Another Beauty Site.

10. Skinny Tie

If you’re into the simple style associated with the uber stylish ladies of Paris, then you might want to give this idea a try. For this look, you’ll need a long skinny scarf which you will loop around your neck and then tie once. Found over on Blair Eadie’s Instagram account.

11. Scarf Necklace

You can even turn a scarf into a necklace of sorts, which is a great way to take advantage of your collection even when it’s warm out. This style is done using a pashmina. Make your way over to Julep to find out how to do this style, as well as a couple of others.

14. The Parisian

15. The Braid

Here’s a fun one which will surely get you some compliments. Begin with a folded triangle, fold that in half, then loop that around your neck and poke the ends through the loops. Check out the full photo tutorial over at Style By Joules, along with lots of other ideas.

16. The Neck Wrap

This is just a small variation on any of the more traditional ways to tie a scarf, but this one looks unique because the section that wraps around the neck covers the knot so it looks nice and clean. Find out how to recreate this look over at Hello Glow.

17. Scarf Belt

Here we have a scarf wrapped around the waist, creating a belted effect. This was done at the Marc Jacobs runway show, but could easily be recreated by any of us regular folk. Just fold a large scarf into a triangle and tie it above your hip. Found here.
