The movement of scarf shows
off best when knitted in a
light-colored yarn.

People everywhere are wrapped up in this year's hottest style. And the style we're talking about is synonymous with comfort -- we're talking about scarves.

You could knit a 3-foot scarf or a 10-foot one -- it's the length that makes the fashion statement, and that depends on how you choose to wear it. Wear a short scarf (3-4 feet) tucked inside your coat to keep your neck and chest warm.

Or wear a midlength one (5-7 feet) wrapped once or twice around your neck, letting the ends hang over your coat front and back.

 

Go for dramatic length
when you want to stand
out in a crowd.

Or fold the scarf in half and thread the two tails through the loop for another great look -- and one of the best ways to keep a scarf in place. But when it comes to wearing a long scarf (8-10 feet), the length is the most dramatic style aspect -- wrap the scarf once and let the tails hang straight down past your knees!
