How-to highlight a rectangular part of a 90 Carré

In the previous post I was looking for a scarf to go with my blue/white/gold/turquoise outfit:

None of my silks seemed to match.. until I discovered a perfect slice (highlighted in green below) within my predominantly brown 'Le Laboratoire du Temps' 90 Carré.

Finding a way to tie the scarf with just the rectangle showing was a fun challenge, and resulted in a summary and breezy scarf necklace.

 How-to

Fold your scarf into a rectangle, so that the part you wish to highlight faces you

Slide a large enough round and smooth ring onto the centre of your scarf

 

Slide two more rings on either side. The rings will hold the scarf firmly in place, and prevent the scarf from twisting and turning, or the backside from showing

Tie the ends together, leaving them as short as possible 

Puff out the silk between the rings (or straighten it out for a sleeker look), and fan out the ends (resulting in a back view as shown below)

Back view

Voilà

This method can be applied to any part of a scarf, horizontally and vertically.

It is not only a wonderful way to bring out favourite aspects of a design but also allows to showcase those parts which get usually folded away.
