questions I've been puzzling over

[sev]

My father supplied an answer to the first question: In what way would a man use a silk scarf? Knot it around his kneck as an ascot when wearing a dressy coat.

The second question I'm making less traction on: What does someone -- of any gender -- do with a scarf that's too short to knot around the kneck? This scarf is lovely but it's only six inches wide and 24 inches long. I fear it's going to end up a doily...

You have long hair, so you can wear it like I often do. Comb your hair back, pass the scarf under the hair behind your neck, lift it up as you cross it over to tie it, then tie a second very tight knot. It holds the hair back in a ponytail that is loose and soft and romantic.
