What do you know about scarves? Typically, it is a piece of fabric, approximately 10 centimeters wide and 70 centimeters long, made to wrap around the neck. The fabric can be of any composition, from synthetic fleece to natural cashmere. In our country, many men still consider a scarf to be more of a women's accessory than a man's. But this is not entirely true, and in this article I will try to dispel prejudices and tell you not only how to tie a scarf for a man, but also why it is worth wearing it not only in cold winter.
For many centuries, a scarf could serve as a badge of honor in both peace and war. Starting from the warriors of the Terracotta Army of Great China, ending with sailors and pilots, they all wore a headscarf or scarf. Some as a sign of distinction from other classes, and others for protection from inclement weather. Obviously, a scarf is far from being a feminine accessory that you should be ashamed of.
Still, why wear a scarf?
Protective function - simply put, the scarf perfectly protects the throat and neck from wind and cold. A thick wool or cashmere scarf can keep you warm in the harsh winter, while a thin, lightweight linen scarf can protect you from the sun or sand (if you happen to be heading to a sandy area).
Style – A scarf or shawl will add a strong element of style to your look, especially when you can match the scarf to the color and type of fabric. Of course, you can wear a scarf on the street and this will surprise few people today, but some creative people They also like to wear a scarf indoors, emphasizing their individuality.
Types of scarves

Material - scarves are usually made from wool, cashmere, angora, cotton, linen, silk, synthetic materials like fleece, as well as various combinations. The material and weave of the scarf (if it is knitted) determines which knots can be used to tie the scarf around the neck.
How to determine whether a scarf is male or female?
Today, most scarves and scarves are still not intended for men. As a rule, the choice of women's scarves and shawls is many times larger, and those made for men periodically raise doubts: are they made for men?! So, here are the points by which you can determine men's scarf or female:

Material selection
Before choosing a tying method, you should carefully select the fabric and color of the scarf itself. After all, even the most exquisite accessory can ruin a carefully thought-out image if its texture is chosen incorrectly. Thus, fur, thick drape or knitted fabric are absolutely not combined with thin airy scarves, no matter how elegant they are.
They should also be selected in accordance with the general clothing style. Rough models made of thick fabric or yarn are unlikely to go well with a luxurious coat. Only thick silk or light cashmere will be ideally combined with it. For down jackets, you should choose jacquard products or knitted fabrics made of dense yarn with relief patterns.
Advice!Warm and voluminous knitted accessories are back at the height of fashion. But they look ideal only with classic things and sportswear. In an office environment they will look more than ridiculous. In the cold season, it is permissible to throw only a wide stole over your shoulders. Fragile girls should not get carried away with too voluminous products.

Advice! The fabric from which the scarf is made should always be slightly thinner than the thickness of the fabric of the clothing itself.
Wreath
An ordinary node is not able to “beat” stylish accessory one hundred percent. How to learn how to beautifully tie scarves (see photo) around your neck? Try wrapping it so that it resembles a wreath shape:
- To do this, first drape it so that the ends hang down the back of your back.
- Cross them at the neck and then throw them forward.

Knot “a la tie”
Outwardly, such a knot really resembles a tie. Let's learn how to tie it on ourselves first. In the future, you will be able to please your spouse or friend with this skill. After all, for some reason, tying a tie is a complete torment for them.
But tying it, it turns out, is not at all difficult:
- The scarf is folded in half, draped over the neck, and both ends are passed through the resulting loop at the same time.
- Now all that remains is to wrap them under the loop, put both ends into the resulting ring and pull them out.
- In this way you can tie not only a scarf, but also a thin one. neckerchief. Of course, it must be the appropriate size - it’s unlikely to be possible to tie a short one with such a knot.
Advice! A rough tie knot will look ridiculous on a thick scarf. It is better to choose silk fabric or not too dense jacquard for this option.
Knot with ears
First, you need to throw on the fabric and wrap it around your neck 2 times. Moreover, this must be done so that one end is much longer than the other.
Now the free edge is pushed through one of the layers. Ready. All that remains is to tie up the loose ends.
Advice! If you have chosen clothes in muted tones, choose a contrasting scarf to match it. Let it be the main emphasis.
How to tie a scarf so that there are no ends?
The beginning of knitting is similar to the previous one. The number of turns can be arbitrary depending on the length of the scarf - only small ends should be left. They must be tied in two knots and hidden under the folds.
Advice! Canvas with small patterns is more suitable for thin girls or women. More large drawing Can be chosen for a woman who is prone to obesity.
Figure eight knot
We get the figure eight by twisting the knot:
- Fold the scarf in half.
- Now we will need to wrap it around the neck and pull both ends into the loop formed after folding.
- Now let's pull one end through the loop again.
- Now we need to twist and turn out the loop with our hands.
- We straighten it so that the knot looks quite voluminous (although its size can be adjusted at your discretion).
- We pull the second tip through the same loop.
- Pull out the ends.
Madeleine knot
In this case, we almost completely wrap ourselves in a wide and long scarf or stole, securing it on the shoulder with a small knot. To do this you need:
- Throw it over your shoulders.
- Take the edges of the scarf by the corners and tie them with a double knot.
- Move the resulting knot onto your shoulder.
- Carefully tuck the untied ends inside.
Option called "glamor"
The ideal voluminous drapery will be achieved if we first put this accessory on our head, then cross its ends and tie them in a knot at the back. All that remains is to lower it onto your shoulders and - voila - enjoy the result.
The second method of “glamor” is also simple. Before throwing the product over your shoulders, fold it in half and tie the ends. Pull the ends and tuck them under the edges of the collar of the garment. This option can be made asymmetrical by placing the knot on the shoulder.
Advice! Use lurex models in such a way that they can be tucked under the collar. Otherwise, the foil threads will rub the skin too much.
Imitating a snood (tube scarf)
This option is similar to the “infinity” method, which we described at the beginning of the article. The only difference is in this case It is not the ends themselves that are connected to each other, but only their tips. To get a clamp, you need:
- Twist the scarf.
- Throw it around your neck.
- Tie its ends together at the very edge of the canvas.
- Wrap it around your neck 2-3 times (the number of turns depends only on the length of the fabric).
- Gently straighten it, hiding the knot in the folds.
Advice! A colorful scarf or scarf can only be combined with plain clothes. On the contrary, a blouse or dress with a pattern will only be combined with a plain accessory.
Classic bow
Bow - This elegant knot will only hold the knot if the fabric is thick enough, but not too thick:
- First, the fabric is draped around the neck.
- We align it so that one end is much shorter than the other.
- The short end is wrapped around the long end to create an Ado loop.
- Throw the long end around the short one.
- Now we need to make a loop at the short end.
- Turn it at a 90 degree angle to the long blade.
- Pull the long one through the loop, first slightly upward and then inward.
- Make a second loop at the top of the end of the scarf.
- We should get two loops lying on the same line.
- Tighten the knot.
Bow rosette
This method is only suitable for tying thin fabrics. It's quite simple. First, one bow is formed. Then a second one is made on top of it. All that remains is to straighten the resulting loops.
Advice! If you really like a blouse or dress, but are embarrassed by a deep neckline, hide it with an elegant thin scarf tied in a light knot.
Autumn version
To ensure that the scarf fits tightly around your neck, you must:
- Wrap it around your neck twice.
- Tie a knot in the back.
- Then take one of its ends and wrap it around one of the turns made around the neck.
- With the other end we twist the second layer-turn of the scarf.
Triangle
A light but voluminous square scarf or stole can be designed as follows. First, they are folded diagonally into a triangle. Then they wrap it around the neck, with the ends tied at the back. Now we tuck the edges under the resulting triangle. With this method, the scarf lies freely and does not fit too closely to the body.
Advice! Have you already used all the options with scarves? Take two contrasting ones and twist them together, tying them with a suitable knot. New look ready.
Chain
This method will not save you from the cold, but a model decorated in this way will look very elegant. It can easily replace beads or a necklace.
- First, a thin narrow scarf with a length of 160 cm is folded in half.
- A loop is made at one end. The second, free one, is held with two fingers: the thumb and forefinger.
- Now we pull it through the loop we made and slightly stretch it no more than 3 cm.
- We pull the end through the new loop again.
- We repeat the movements until the chain is ready.
- We complete the work by tightening the free end.
- We arrange the resulting chain around the neck and tie the ends or secure them with a brooch.
Advice! A long scarf, simply wrapped around the neck with knots tied at the very ends, also looks good. This method is called “dovetail”.
French knot
The method is suitable for narrow short scarves or scarves. You need to start wrapping your neck with them from the front. After one turn, the ends are brought forward and tied into a tight knot.
There is another similar method. It is somewhat similar to the method of tying pioneer ties:
- A square-shaped scarf must first be folded into a triangle and then thrown over the shoulders.
- The loose ends are tied in front and straightened.
- Now you need to form a small pocket from the ends and tuck the other end in there.
French knot scarf. Step 1-2
Advice!A strict men's shirt will only be combined with a small narrow scarf or shawl. With a blouse and sweater, you can use more voluminous accessories. Their volume, naturally, varies depending on the model of clothing.
weaving loop
We fold a long scarf and put it around the neck. Its ends should be threaded into the loop in a checkerboard pattern. That is, first one end is threaded through it. Then the loop unfolds and the second tip is threaded through it. Distribute the loop so that it looks as natural as possible.
Weaving loop. Step 3-4 Butterfly
The fabric for this method should be chosen thin, but dense enough so that it can hold the shape of the folds. To create the butterfly effect, you will need a small clip ring. Even a regular wedding band is quite suitable:
- The scarf is draped around the neck. Its ends are aligned.
- Now each edge is folded in the center and folds are formed from it.
- Do the same manipulation with the second edge.
- Without straightening the folds, carefully pull them through the ring towards each other.
- Place the butterfly on your shoulder, distributing the loose ends into folds.
This option looks very elegant There are many ways to tie scarves, but, as a rule, they are variations of several basic ones.
