Bring the top point down to the straight, closed end of the scarf.

Fold the top edge down to the newly formed bottom edge.
Step 6.

Fold the entire scarf over once more, lengthwise.

Drape the scarf around your neck so one end hangs lower than the other.

Wrap long end

Hold the short end in place, and wrap the long end over and around it.

Thread long end

Thread the long end through the front of the knot, where your fingers are, and pull it down to tighten.

Adjust the knot and smooth out the loose ends.
The Windsor knot is named after Edward VIII, who was the Duke of Windsor before abdicating the British throne for “the woman I love.”
