Introduction
The Scarf is one of the main items of the Scout uniform and symbolically plays a very important role. The Scarf is probably the single most universal identification of a Scout and the Scout movement.
A SCARF is a piece of cloth, worn round the neck in similar fashion to a tie. In unfolded form, it consists of a piece of cloth in the shape of a right triangle, with the hypotenuse about three feet long. When a neckerchief is to be worn, the hypotenuse side is rolled in the direction of the right angle until most of the neckerchief is consumed in the roll, leaving only a small triangle free.
It is then placed on the wearer's back so that the roll is under (or on top of) the shirt collar and the free triangle hangs down. The rolled ends then pass around the neck until they meet in front of it, where they are secured together, either with a knot, such as a square knot, or other type of fastener (called a woggle or neckerchief slide) and allowed to hang.
