Re: Strip: Which way to scarf?
In Response To: Re: Strip: Which way to scarf? ()

: Hmm! You are from Australia so it figures that you wouldn't know how to scarf
: properly.

: I noticed that the subject heading that you chose to use is
: "stripping". If you have to scarf, then you should never strip.
: The need for scarfing is indicative not only of foul weather but damned
: cold foul weather, probably with windy conditions, which could increase
: the windchill considerably. Oftentimes, such conditions occur during
: winter months but you should be experiencing summer weather conditions
: because you live in the southern hemisphere. Please, don't tell me that
: local temperatures dropped to below 25 C and now you are cold: that will
: just get me ranting about global warming.

: As for scarfing...you start by wrapping the middle of the scarf around your
: neck so that both ends are hanging behind your back. You then bring each
: end up front so that the ends are hanging in the front. If done correctly,
: you will find a single layer of fabric covering the front of your neck.
: This wrap can be widened or narrowed according to confort levels. Each end
: of the scarf can then be left hanging outside your winter jacket or tucked
: in just above the zipper, which should be zipped up as much as possible.
: You would only tuck in your scarf ends in case of windy conditions, which
: could cause the scarf to be blown off your neck.

: Now I know there are those of you who are probably itching to debate how to
: wrap the scarf in a so-called proper fashion. I am offering MY choices.
: Y'all can argue all ya want about what way is better. ;)

: I hope this helps.

That's not true, their scarfs angle just goes the other way :)
