Scarves - A Winter Must-Have

Aside from keeping your neck warm, scarves brighten up the cold and dreary months by adding a splash of color to your outfit. The best scarves are colorful with a fun pattern like stripes, zig zags or polka dots, and have fringed tassels or pom-poms on the ends! Whether your grandmother knitted it or you bought one at the mall, make sure your scarf is long and skinny; otherwise it'll look silly when you tie it around your neck!

Scarves - Tie It This and That Way

The easiest way to wear a scarf is to drape it around your neck and flip one end around. You can also wrap it loosely around your neck a few times, or fold it in half and pull one end through. If you want to tie it, you can make a single knot or tie it into a loose necktie. There are more elaborate ways to tie a scarf, but we'll leave that to older peeps like your granny or the school librarian.
