after featuring my favorite scarf in a few different outfits over the past two weeks (here & here), i received a couple inquiries on how i tied it in the pictures. great news, it’s pretty simple to recreate! to show you, i’ve shot a step-by-step tutorial so you, too can warm your neck in style this season.

how to tie a blanket scarf

step one || start out with the scarf completely unfolded.

step two || taking two opposite sides, fold it in half to create a triangle.

step three || wrap the scarf around your neck with the point facing down, similar to how you’d tie on a bandanna.

step four || pull the ends to tighten the scarf around your neck, leaving a shallow cowl so you have room to breathe!

step five || tuck the ends of the scarf up under the fabric at your shoulders so they’re no longer visible.

step six || get your hands in there and mess around with the shape of it until you’re satisfied! remember that not only is your scarf a functional piece, it’s also an accessory so style it however you feel most comfortable and confident wearing it!
