Dear
@vildachya, here are the pics that show the red hem on Acte III, CW12

I would try it if I were you. I’ve found that every time I’ve tied it, the moon has seldom shown up, and I’ve not been intentional about it. Same with the Baobab Cat. I folded it in the store a few ways and couldn’t tell that there was a cat with big eyes there, otherwise it would have bothered me. Take a look at my pics to see a few knots where you can’t see the moon at all.
Again, you need to try them on to see. Same thing happened to me with the horse’s eye in Appaloosa so I avoided it like the plague. Then, super late in the game, I tried it on and fell in love. I wear it like crazy and every time I tie it the eye never pops up. I’m so glad that I bought it because the rest of the design is spectacular and amazing tied. I feel the same about the Baobab Cat.
Believe me, it’s super easy to hide the moon. As a matter of fact, I purposely have to try to play it up in those knots I posted where it actually shows up. Same thing with Baobab Cat. I found it super easy to fold the eye away and focus on the beauty of the rest of the design.
Don’t worry. I own all of these designs and CWs and the only two that worry me for being too similar are Jaguar Quetzal CW1 and Acte III CW 10. Sure the colors are similar in the Samouraïs pictured and Acte III, CW12 but stylistically they couldn’t be more different, so it’s not an issue, at least for me. You will have to judge for yourself.
Ha! I hated that darn cat, so I was very hesitant. Then I tied it and completely changed my mind. And the vibrant, painterly quality of the design are stunning. Ties gorgeously!
Believe me, the moon disappears 90 percent of the time when you tie it. I’ve tied it multiple ways and the creepy moon has been nowhere in sight. Now, I understand if it bothers you, period, when lying flat then that will be a problem.
The hem is red. I thought I was gonna hate it and actually loved the pop of the red color when tied. You’ll have to try it on yourself and decide. Today I took a couple of pics that show the hem and I actually like it. See the pics above
