This square silk scarf is the Mia from ClaudiaG, a 20 by 20 inch square in a painted floral print. It comes in three colorways: sage green with pink and peach blooms, white with gray and ochre botanicals inside a slate border, and cream with coral and teal flowers edged in pink. It is small enough to knot at the throat and big enough to dress a ponytail, which is why a square this size lives so easily in a bag.

  • Folds to a triangle. Folded corner to corner, the square gives a long edge of about 28 inches, enough to tie behind the neck with short tails.
  • Four jobs, one square. ClaudiaG pictures it as a neck scarf, a bag accent, a hair tie and even a bracelet.
  • Border frames the knot. Each colorway is finished with a contrast edge, so the tips of a knotted scarf end in a clean line of color.

What a 20 Inch Square Does

Square silk scarves come in a few standard sizes, and 20 inches (about 51 cm) sits at the neckerchief end of the range. The big squares that hover around 35 inches drape over the chest and shoulders; a 20 inch square stays close to the neck, so it works as a finishing touch instead of a layer. That makes it the right size for a crew neck sweater, an open shirt collar or the gap of a trench coat, where a large scarf would bunch up and hide the outfit.

How to Tie a Silk Scarf

How to tie a silk scarf of this size comes down to three easy knots. For the neckerchief, fold it into a triangle, roll it from the long edge into a band about two inches wide, wrap it once and tie a small square knot slightly off center. For hair, lay the folded triangle at the nape and tie the points on top of the head, or wind the rolled band around a ponytail and finish with a bow. For a bag, slip one corner through the handle and knot it so the print hangs down the side.

Choosing Sage, Gray or Rose

The green is the quietest colorway, a sage ground that sits well with camel, cream and denim. The gray is the cool one, and its slate edges pick up silver jewelry and charcoal knits. The rose is the brightest, coral and pink on cream, and it is the colorway to pick when a simple outfit needs one bright note. Because the print covers nearly the whole square, the color that shows at the knot depends on which part of a flower lands there, so every tying looks a little different. ClaudiaG's care line is short: hand wash in cold water, no bleach, and lay it flat to dry.

Wearing the Mia Square Every Day

Is a 20 inch silk scarf big enough to cover my hair? It covers a bun or a ponytail and works as a headband, but it will not wrap a full head of hair the way a 35 inch square does. Think of it as trim for the hair, not a head wrap.

Will silk slip out of a knot during the day? Silk is smooth, so a loose single knot can work free. A square knot, right over left and then left over right, holds far better than a granny knot, and a small elastic under a ponytail wrap keeps the whole thing in place.

When do most people shop for silk scarves? Search interest in silk scarves climbs through the fall and peaks in December, the month they are bought most as gifts. A 20 inch square is an easy one to give, since it fits every neck and every bag strap.
