Scarves Best scarf knots to show off contrast hems

#31
Well, while experimenting with pocketbook pup's variation on the asymmetrical fold (i.e. grasping and pinching in the center before slinging around neck and casually tying in a single knot at front of neck), this happened! I thought I'd better secure the knot with a shawl ring, as I was afraid it might keep slipping open throughout the day. I slid the first end through (with a bit of difficultly because of the cascading folds) and then as I was pushing the second tail through, by chance, just before trying to squeeze that last bit through I noticed that I liked the effect created by not pulling all of the material through. Anyway, I thought it belonged on this thread, as I believe it does a very good job of showing off a contrast hem after all. I'll admit, the resulting knot was not the casual, I just threw this on vibe that I was going for, but I went with it nonetheless!

Thanks for starting this thread momasaurus! I love a contrast hem, and find that all of the knots already mentioned and pictured do work really well. I am attaching a couple of pictures of the knots already mentioned to give a visual. I think the way the one side fans out on arabesque's knot really showcases a contrast hem. Plus the pleated fold with a shawl ring or even just tied is one I use often, plus it is super easy. Pictured here on both a 90 and a 70! (of course the 70 is secured with a regular scarf ring). All archive pics...sorry :smile:

These are great Bova!!

And speaking of Bova Inspiration, here's my humble Bova knot I mentioned earlier. You can see it highlights the contrast hem nicely I think.

Oh sweet!! But what do you mean, archival - isn't that last one the new 70 Savannah? I have my eye on that amazing border.

I love that first knot, not sure I can pull off the ruff look as well as you. I have some time tomorrow to try...

O. M. G. I love this so much! :ps: Twins on the scarf, but no way do I think I could replicate this knot. You didn't happen to have a video camera running, did you? :lol::lol:

Glad you like my posts on your thread momasaurus! I totally think you can pull off the ruffle look in that first picture, and yes, I guess the Savannah Dance is not exactly an archive photo!
As far as a video running on that "mistake" knot I wore today...ummm...sorry, but :lolots: In fact, I am not even sure if I'll be able to re-create it!!
