So, ya wanna wear a scarf, but don’t know how to tie it??? WELL!! I may not be the expert on the tying, but I sure know where to find the ways!!
There are lots of YouTube videos out there, but my VERY favorite, most helpful, and most entertaining is by Wendy’s Lookbook.

Another is Scarves dot Net. They have a lot of photos for lots of specific styles of scarf, including head scarf tying.

Try it, you’ll like it! They’re all really easy after you do it a couple times, anyway.
And to top it off, you’ll impress people with your technique!

Haute-up your hat!

I had only thought about tying a bold bright scarf around a nice sun-hat in the spring & summer…
But my friend Amy McKeown has two scarves by me, and she’s tied them beautifully around her winter hats!
I think it’s very chic and adds a unique personality!

This would make a lovely sarong dress or a pretty incredible wall-hanging.

This piece is about 108″ x 45″, and would make an amazing wall hanging, or a sarong dress… Hand-batik silk, with wet-into-wet dye and brushed-on wax strokes used in creating the soft textures in this design.
