Whoohoo! F/W 2007 Scarves in the Stores (and I brought one home :)

Yup! It's because the pattern has some speckling or dotting; you can see it clearly here (in Rouge Carmin).

Threw in the Carnet de Bal too since that's 2007 as well.

Is the speckling in the weave???
I am all atwitter with excitement!

i've seen this scarf in this colorway IRL and there is quite a bit of speckling, it's gorgeous! adds a totally new dimension (no pun intended). the leather looks like textured leather in real life, it's rather realistic. pics do NOT do it justice IMHO.
 
CB--it's not textured like a jacquard weave; it's all illusion (as far as I can tell). I am usually not attracted to equine-themed scarves, but when I received it, I was stunned. It's a show-stopper. I agree with Pigleto that pics don't do it justice.
