Saranga, I love all the different ways you draped this Csgm. I had passed on this cw in the store as I already have two other cws of this design. Now I’m wondering if I should go back for it (if it’s still available) after seeing your enabling pictures.

This CW is still available on H.com, if you do not mind buying online! I had really hoped to love this one; alas, the blue in it did not seem to work for me.

PdS 140 in CW 03. Quetsche/turquoise/orange/rose.

PdS 140 in CW 01. Quetsche/blanc/turquoise/vert.

Hi, Saranga - just wanted to note here that despite the misinformation the H website keeps displaying for color ways, QU stands for Quadrichromie rather than Quetsche.

This season H decided to produce certain colorways across designs - naming the colorways, including Quadrichromie, Purplish, Mediterrannee, etc. The website is wrong. Quetsche he is a shade of purple!

I am sorry these didn’t work out for you. I love cw03 so much I am trying not to purchase a backup/duplicate, which I have never considered before...

Oh my goodness, thank you for pointing this out to me BBC! I can't seem to go back and edit my posts, but yes future readers should please ignore the "quetsche" part in my posts.

I had copy and pasted the color information from the all-en site (my go-to when I want to locate info on both current and older designs), thus I wasn't really thinking. And I am not very well versed on H color names anyway.

Yes, I was also very disappointed that 03 did not work out for me. Actually I'm gonna admit, it was your profile pic (with the 03 draped over your B) that was possibly my first enabling pic on this CW!! I think it had been catching my eye around the forum for days... All I know is, literally overnight I became incredibly keen on it and searched up all the pics I could find before pulling the trigger. I was SO looking forward to it, and fully expected to keep it, but alas it did not seem to love me much in real life. I was really quite sad about it.

But others have looked gorgeous in theirs, including you I am sure! I do really adore the reds and pinks in this CW. And of course, I would encourage you to buy a backup now than later :biggrin::flowers: ESPECIALLY for this design.

I wanted to love this one too, as the colors in it were surprisingly pretty in person (as opposed to the stock photo). But it didn't seem 100 percent for me, so ultimately decided against it. Looks like I will be sticking with just one PdS shawl (CW 06!).

This CW did not love me back...
