Ever since MaiTai started her Magic Scarf thread, I have been in love with the Carre en Carre. I was ecstatic to find out it was coming out in the GM shawl.

Then I found out Tods had posted 4 CW's of it. Here are the following CW's of the GM Shawl, courtesy of Tods123. 02, 04, 05, 06.

I tried on CW 02 and another one that is not pictured above, but I don't way CW it is. Its white/light grey/bold orange. But still, I have not found the right CW for me. Does anyone know if there are more than 6 CW's and what they might look like? I have to get this!

I really like CW 04 for the silk scarf, but for me, a GM Shawl is more versatile. I have to find CW 01 & 03 and find out if there are more than 6 CW's for the shawl.

I like grey and orange, but the orange on the one I tried on was too bold and the grey was too light.

Thank you for posting the colourways all in a row!

I didn't like this pattern when I saw it flat, but it's a favourite folded!

Ammietwist · Jan 12th, 2009, 12:10 PM

Such an interesting design, but none of the colorways work for me. Darn.

Irishgal · Jan 12th, 2009, 12:53 PM

I did not thin this colorway would work for me but it does..

Purse-o-holic · Jan 12th, 2009, 02:18 PM

^^^Yes! A lot of times, you have to see it IRL.

littleblackbag · Jan 12th, 2009, 02:30 PM

irishgal yours is such a lovely c/w, looks better in your pic than in the website pic.

I didn't think I liked this scarf at all till I got one in c/w 04, but now I'm lusting after c/w 01 too. This really is a beautiful scarf and if I had bucket loads of money (which is what it seems a person needs now the prices have gone up) I would definitely be after a shawl too.

As we know I love this scarf & have it now in the 01 colorway.This is my contribution,the pic was taken indoors.I'm very curious to see someone model the shawl to see what it would look like.This is an ingenious idea having so many looks on one scarf!

doloresmia · Jan 12th, 2009, 03:28 PM

does anyone have pictures of the shawl version to post? i would love to know what colors it comes in

i tried on the orange, yellow and etoupe color in BH. beautiful summer colors

This is BEAUTIFUL!!! You said it's a scarf? OMG I just LOVE the color!! I, too, wonder how it would look in cashmere. I often find the cashmere's colors are a lot more muted than silk's....

xiaoxiao-Totally agree with you,I can't wait to see someone model the shawl version.For me I'm too happy with my 01 scarf!
