Scarves The How-To Guide for Scarves!!!! NO CHATTER!

[bunnycat]

With a 90cm scarf, you need to work with a bias folded scarf to have enough length to do a Tods/Weave knot but after that, the instructions are the same.

1- center, wrap and ends to front



2- tuck one end down through the center so it comes out the bottom



3- "Weave" the other tail so it comes out between the 2 parts on the other side



4- pull to tighten and clean it up, and here's where you have to make some adjustments for a 90.



5: just pulling the ends is not enough to keep it in place, because they are short and the silk is slippery, so just half knot the ends to secure them:



6- Or, full knot to really be secure (you can tuck the knot up in the folds like I did or leave it)

Putting a tute for a basic Weave knot (I call it a Tods knot out of habit to a tpf member) and my alteration of it for use on 90cm scarves.

Basic Weave/Tods knot is fab for larger or long formats (all that length on the Maxi Twillies or MT slims)


1- On a large format you can work with a bias fold, or just fold it down in to a thin rectangle and put the center of it at the front, bring tail around the back and to the front again.

2- Insert one of the tails top to bottom under the center of the scarf:

3- "Weave" the other tail in between the end you tucked and the center of the scarf, so it lays UNDER the tail, but comes out OVER the center

4- Pull the ends to tighten and secure. You can generally leave this alone with the big formats, especially if you have used the bias to do this (as you will have long tails) but you can also half tie the ends to give extra security.

For @turfnsurf
I don’t know the name for this, but a very kind Instagrammer Craielover showed me how to do it.
It starts with the asymmetric fold:
Put it around your neck
Next take one end and wrap it over the other side - you can pleat that a bit of you like

Next, bring the end in your hand under that side, to get ready to tie a knot
Tie a knot
Tighten the knot

And you’re done! I hope this made sense!

Wearing my Amalpolis 90 as a skirt. Definitely need a dress or skirt underneath to make this look work. Next time I’d like to try the Mors scarf ring to ad a couple more inches.

Here's my scarf braid - hope this wasn't posted before:
start with bias fold like so (around neck)

start braiding the three ends:

secure with single or double knot

I agree, I just tried it with my Les Leopards wash with great results. I also tried it with the Plumes, though, which I think is fairly busy, and it worked really well!

true - it really depends on the pattern. I just tried it with Canada and I kinda dig it:

Have fun knotting

The Plisse Forgiving Knot

1. Fold plisse in half. IMHO it is useless to try and bias fold it because the pleats are like Slinkys.
2. Loop/tie (not sure which word to use) it once:

3. Loop/tie once again:

4. This is where you can get a bit creative. Take the right tail (facing you) and bring it over from under. Take the left tail and bring over the top:

or loop the tails over/under as it suits.
5. Discreetly tie the tails under the knot.

6. Fluff knot out. You could also tie tails so they show.
7. Enjoy!
THE END

I do another variation on the @Bova123 knot - not sure if I've ever seen it posted. To avoid the extra creases from the knots (I try to minimize ceases in my scarfs - just a personal hang up) while at the same time adding a bit of glitz - I use 2 Regate scarf rings (a gold one & a gold+silver one) and slide these on the tails & then pull through.

Hi ladies - I have two knots people have asked me about so I’ll post here. I will represent I’ve never seen a tutorial for these, so hopefully these aren’t duplicative! I hope no one minds but I’ll do in multiple posts because I think sometimes posting multiple pictures doesn’t happen in uploading order.

here is the first:

step one: fold scarf in a triangle:

 

[laurenad]

Step two: do an accordion fold of the longest part of the triangle (the folded part). Post-fold sample:

 

[laurenad]

Step three: wrap around neck - use a scarf ring (sample in my first photo) and thread the side with the ends through to make little opening that you can pull something through. Here is a sample with my finger through the opening.
