Ooooooh I love this one! Have you tried that with a CSGM as well? I don't like the cowboy cos it makes me feel like I'm wearing a bib, but this could solve that problem!

Hi ajaxbreaker! I have not tried that yet. I have tried it with the GM mousselines and it worked for those. Give it a go!

View attachment 4472206 Nothing fancy here. I just threw my Kachinas cw 01 over my shoulders. I love the feel of the giant triangle. Very thick and soft.

This is awesome BBC, thank you so much. We are twins on the bright pink Kachinas Giant Triangle, and I totally agree with you that it is a pleasure to wear. As you mention, it is light, like the summer 140, but less material, and I would add that the softness reminds me of the vintage 70's. I just love mine, and now you've given me many more ideas on how to wear it!! I believe I already posted one or two of these photos, but I thought it would be handy to post here so fellow scarifies can view some of the styling options on one thread.

These ties are very lovely, bova123. Can you please tell me the name of the tie in the second photo?

So sorry for the late reply Karenska. @bunnycat has it about right. I believe I started with a traditional cowboy knot, but then brought each end, one over and one under the triangle in front and then proceeded to tie the two ends in the knot in front. Hopefully that makes sense? It was one of those experiments that I just kind of tied and went!

Notorious Pink, Bova123 and others, thank you for all the tying suggestions. I just purchased my very first triangle a couple of weeks ago and I love it. I bought the fuscia/yellow/navy, which makes me twins with a few of you. I feel this silk is lighter than the 90 twills - am I correct? Is this what is called summer silk?

I don't think it is as light as summer silk (but I only have 1 summer giant silk, and it is one of the original issue summer silks and the hand may have changed a little). It is closer to the 70cm vintage silk feel to me.
