I have a few different books on how to tie scarves and found this one to be the best. It is easy to follow, good pictures, and some great ways to wear scarves without alot of time spent to get it to look right. If you have some scarves and need ideas, I would get this book!

I think this book needed a good editor. Some of the directions are not clearly written. I'm a writer, and even I had a hard time deciphering some of the text. Illustrations are somewhat helpful, but the layout is confusing. It's not always easy to tell which illustration goes with which step. It would have been better to include photos of hands folding the scarves.

Some of the tying methods are nice -- traditional and classic techniques that I can wear to the office. But a lot of them are kind of weird -- even outdated-looking. I can't see going to work with three huge scarves braided together with pearls. Some of the techniques have a funky '70s disco look, but I guess that's in style.

Also, the author includes options for only a couple of sizes of scarves -- most of them quite large.

I liked a lot of the ideas! It shows some unique ways to tie various shaped scarves. I have many scarves that I never wore because I didn't have a clue how to tie them, and this book has helped greatly. Be sure to get a scarf ring! Some neat ideas include using beads or pearls wrapped or braided into the scarf!

I am sorry I bought this book. It is not updated. It has an old fashioned way to tie a scarf. There are only about 2 ways that would look good these days. I would be embarassed to wear a scarf the way the author describes it!!! Not worth the money

It's difficult to find updated books with color illustrations and clear directions. Some of the illustrations in this book are dated; however, others are still fashionable. Stores have beautiful scarves for sale and many are purchased; however, I seldom see anyone wearing them except as simply draped across the shoulders in no particular style. This casual method is easy, usually becoming and not overly fussy but I believe another reason is that no one actually knows how to tie scarves. If we must use older books to teach ourselves, I can recommend this book as perhaps not the greatest but certainly helpful.

The book had very clever and creative ways to tie and wear a scarf. I ordered it for a friend, and she was delighted with it. It arrived very quickly.

The book arrived in very good time and the service was excellent. My only problem is that I didn't select the right book for what I was looking for -- more ties for long scarves and fewer for square ones. However, that does not reflect poorly on the seller at all.

Unfortunately the book is now seriously outdated. interesting read for "styles " that could be considered in previous decades, or if you needed to dress up for a "decade party".

not what I needed which was a "modern" take on how to tie scarves unfortunately.

Some of the styles could be adapted however if you were a good fashionista.
