This book is extremely old fashioned - very 80s and concentrates on a very 'American' style of dressing. I was hoping for something which would give a few unusual ways of using a scarf but really, you would not wish to be seen in any of these creations.
On the plus side the instructions do appear to be clear although the photography of the model appears to be very amateurly done.

Although the books photos are a little dated, the instructions are clear and when used with contemporary scarves don't look at all dated the results really dress up any outfit, I have used may of the designs and have been complemented and asked for demonstrations. I have lent the book to quiet a few friends without concern that any of us will be seen wearing the same thing as each fold with a different scarf will be unique to the wearer!

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!

This book needed a good editor

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 But a lot of them are kind of weird -- even outdated-looking.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!
