Hi there pointu-scarf enthusiasts !

I have a beautiful dark blue/green/lime ribbon design pointu that I purchased last year. The design was a presentation of loosly entangled hermes signature ribbon.

Is this a variation of a design that H comes out with each year? ?
Just wondering because I went to H to purchase another, and she showed me a different design which I did not love. It looked like the ribbons were in a basket weave.

If you have pics of previous ribbon designs could you post? I would love to see a few other designs. I just love the ribbons !
(I will post the one I just described when I am back to my regular computer thx)

My ONe Pintu Is Ex-Libres (I'll Try & Get A Pic...A Little Latter)....I Believe The Pointu Is The Updated Ribbons Pointu As They Did With The Twillies. Could This Be Similar To The New Design (But In Twilly Version):

***Sorry The Picture Isn't Clearer....This Was A Picture Of A Very Sweet Gift!!!!!

The design you have and love is called Bolduc - I have no idea what it means! Like you I prefer the looser design to the dense basketweave. Bolduc has been around for quite some time - it seems to be reissued in the pointu every year at the moment but things change. It has been available in the gavroches as well.
