Ok...a few quick pics....

I've had this scarf before in a bandana but sold it because the colors didn't look right on me, so it wasn't really on my radar again. But well, it's mousseline, and I've been looking for a pink scarf for awhile so thought I'd take a look at this since it had a return policy and Mr Bcat offered to get it for the "present stash". Blown away by its pinkness upon arrival, I grudgingly put it back in the box to await some special gift giving occasion. So happy that it was a short wait!

My NTM Peuple du Vent GM mousseline in fuchsia, rose vif and violet. It's a little pinker IRL than the pics show. The incandescent overhead is pulling out the more reddish tones.

If you want a strong changeant effect, the colors that are placed in the weaving need to have higher contrast (like pink and blue or green and purple). But because the base of the scarf strarts with some woven color, I think that is why a lot of the changeants don't often have a lot of contrast and are more tonal, because any silk screening done over the top of the base color is going to be affected by that color underneath and so looses some contrast.

Ohmigosh - how marvelously interesting. Seriously. Thank you - I had NO idea how H did that.

It's glorious on you Bova! Congrats! That pinkish lavender is a favorite color of mine!

Thank you bunnycat...I was actually concerned that the pink would look too pastel-y on me, and although it is light, it has a purple undertone which seems to take it out of the pastel realm if that makes sense! I am very pleased though, already got two compliments today out running errands :smile:
