   Place the scarf behind your neck. Grab the ends of the scarf so that the scarf is stretched horizontally behind your neck. The scarf should be parallel to your shoulders.

   • The entire scarf should be behind your neck. Do not insert your head through the loop of the infinity scarf.

   Drape the ends over your shoulders. Bring the two ends of infinity scarf to the front of your body. Let go of both ends so that the scarf drapes over each shoulder.

   Insert one end through the other. Grasp the right end of the scarf, keeping the end closed. Insert the right end through the open end of the left side.

   • The end being pulled through should be treated as a single portion of fabric rather than a loop.
4. 

   4

   Tighten the scarf. Pull the entire closed end of the scarf through the loop so that the scarf fits snuggly below your chin. Allow the one end to hang down in the front of your torso. Adjust the scarf to fit comfortably around your neck.

   • Be careful to not pull the scarf too tight. The scarf should fit comfortably around your neck and allow plenty of room to breathe.

   • If you have a single perpendicular seam connecting the fabric into a loop, hide it at the base of your neck.
   • If there are seams along the inside of the scarf, position the scarf so that these seams are against your body instead of facing out.

   Cross the scarf in front of your body. Create a figure 8 in front of your body by crossing the lower right portion of the scarf over the lower left portion. The cross should be directly in front of your neck. This will create two loops. One loop will be around your neck. The other will be right in front of your neck.^[5]

   • It does not matter which way you cross the fabric. You could also cross the lower left portion of the scarf over the lower right portion.

   Insert your head through the lower loop. Pull the lower loop up and over your head.^[6]

   Adjust the scarf. Pull on the ends of the loops until both loops are as big or small as desired.^[7]

   • Create a layered look by making one loop slightly longer than the other.
