This quintessential scarf print will complement all of your cold-weather corduroys and tweeds. Opt for a traditional tartan motif or a larger check pattern with bold, primary color schemes.

Swap your sweater sets for a chunky scarf that you can match to your cable knits. Equal parts luxe and cozy, you may even get away with wearing your heavy knits in place of traditional outerwear.

A large, logo-adorned scarf will be the star of the show. Style yours over one shoulder, fastened with your favorite belt, or sport it over your shoulders accompanying a minimalist knit dress.
