Help please. I love Le Jardin de Lelia, but am having trouble with the color ways. They are beautiful, but I look blah in them. Any thoughts what is the most "user friendly"? Cannot wear yellows, mustards, camel, greys (one of my favorite combo's of course)..........blues, and mauves work........

This is probably a silly question but is there a complete list of all the 140 gm CW's of Le Jardin? Thanks

Press button went too quickly... all and every cws of Jardins de Leila. No one worked for me. I looked drowned inside, as Chestnutty pointed out talking about some of her friends... Had I to choose one, I'd have gone for framboise/lie de vin. But I gave up. Didn't work on me at all. So it had to be a "no"...

It's not an easy shawl: as much as I like it, it doesn't work on me either......

When I first saw this design in tiny pic in the booklet I wasn't really interested--boy was I wrong! If I remember correctly you have 2 coming (or arrived already)? Please share! I think I tied this by first doing the standard cowboy, then passing one of the tails through the hood a la the weave knot. Does that make sense...?

I was just like you, I saw the small pic in the booklet when it was posted here and immediately thought no, pass, not for me at all, but I eat my words now!
Yes, two are en route, I'm hoping they come soon!
Thank you, I must try your instructions when they arrive, I think I understand... in my head it makes sense, lets see if I can pull it off in reality!

Pegase once again gave me new ideas, with this MP pareo... So there will be blood! :laugh:
Kéa is the new men's 140. It's cashmere/silk/cotton. Le Nombre d'Or is 100 ...and silk/cotton, so I'm afraid I'm off topic... Here you go, pics courtesy H.com :

And ooops, I did it again... Here is my new CSGM Eperon d'Or indigo! Not the best jacket to wear it, but this was unexpected! ;)

You and Pegase are kindred silky souls, I can imagine you two shopping together and causing some serious damage!
You rock these sultry, edgy, gent's carres completely :tup:

You're telling me, my dear MYH... My wallet is not thanking me... But I agree, this one, I just couldn't pass...

OMG, my dear, I can't even imagine the carnage if Pegase went shopping with me! ;) As usual, this is all his fault, as he showcased this MP I was after, and as usual FSH had not... So I had to find another one, and this didn't take a long time...

:laugh: You two are the perfect storm.
MP is a must-get for you. I have the anthracite 90 en route but the pareo Pegase posted is also whispering my name.
Don't stop, Anfang, I'm enjoying the aftermath of your boutique pillaging!

Aaaaah my dear BritAbroad, this MP pareo was my target today, and look what happened! And this pareo is STILL whispering my name too... And had I heard my men's dept SA, I'd come back with the Kéan moreover! :laugh:
I really have to calm down, I'm swimming to Ban Island now. OK, I know I'll not stay very long there, as well... ;)

Terrible at doing selfies but here is Parures de Sables. (My scarf tying skills are a work in progress too ;) ). Haven't seen this shawl posted here and thought I'd share. It feels like spring today (though I believe it will be short lived) and I so I was in the mood for pink. Sorry for the picture size - don't how to make it smaller. Anyways, hope you enjoy, I always enjoy seeing everyone elses photos.
