I'll be joining you momentarily. Fab look!

Score two for Texas shivering souls.....Silk Mix as temp dropped 40 degrees in six hours....it ain't fancy, but it’s warm.
On the toy theme: coming of age in 1975, the apex of adulthood was acquiring the necessity of an apartment and a stereo system (e.g., toy). Silk Mix just keeps spinning the hits!

Ace iii? Does Oberon playing a prank on Titania count?

Texas cold part 3.....

Went to the store to get some cat food like this....


The front blew in just as I got back from the store (like when I left the store, it was fine and in the 5!!! minutes it took to get home.....brrrrrrr.....

A hour later when I went out again, I was dressed like this...(Flamingo Party and a coat got added on...at least I stuck with a party format... )

The wooden toys of Noel au Faubourg 24... While I love this CW, I recently fulfilled my wish of adding another much coveted one to my collection... Am saving it for December and can barely hold my excitement

It's such a great design. I have two packs of Tarot cards which I bought just because they were sooooo beautiful.

Not a stretch at all - I understand people with $$$ for big boy toys will buy racehorses, football clubs, and what have you

When you think you don’t have anything for the weekly theme, pull out lab du temps!

I took your advice to heart and bid on one... (It was the Superman that got me )

You have a great eye for detail. I missed this one!

Apologies for the triple error above. I've reported it. Dupe postings are bad enough, but triplets

I wore a scarf today which I haven't seen before on SOTD. This is Faites Vos Jeux which is completely about playing various types of games. It's a bird's eye view of four chairs and a glass table. You can see dominos, draughts, scrabble, dice and other games on the table.

The border has the symbols of the four card suits. As well, the entire scarf is overlaid with an interlocking jigsaw grid.

Another scarf which has a jigsaw grid is Puzzle.

Jigsaws belong to a class of toys for older-than-toddlers which challenge the mind to reconstruct an image. H has several scarves which play on this theme where the mind and the eye may each see something different.
For instance, the lenticular ducks and rabbits in this Illusion gavroche, Onde de Chic with the horses hidden in the swirling lines and Sous les Orangeres in the orange cw which has fish concealed in the rippling waters.

Other twists on the theme: in the kaleidoscope (traditional toy!) of Faubourg by Night, Faubourg itself is fractalized. And the Magic Eye effect is used in Magic Kelly and the pixilated Rendezvous au 24.

Wow! These are outstanding!

Playtime in other countries today. My SOTD is the delightful wonderland of Russian toys Zabavushka. First outing although I bought this years ago. Also first attempt at the Octopus knot

In the middle of the scarf is a toy soldier. He reminds me of the tale of the Steadfast Tin Soldier who is set adrift in a paper origami boat. Origami can be used to make pretty toys. Some of them are very ingenious "action toys". Try folding a pecking chicken! My origami scarves: Cocottes de Soie and Metamophose d'Une Carre.

Meanwhile, over in China, a deadly guessing game plays out in Turandot. The princes who fail to answer three questions forfeit their lives

In Japan, the exquisite decorative temari balls were once made of scrap cloth and used in handball games.

I used to play pick-up-sticks with a handful of brightly coloured plastic sticks. H has a luxe equestrian-themed version made from sycamore wood and elegantly painted to mimic showjumping poles. The sticks appear on the glass table in Faites vos Jeux and in this cute small cashmere scarf Mikado.

The rabbit ears become the duckling's beak and the rabbit front paws become the flapping wings.

Ah! That took awhile. Obviously I am psychologically damaged or something.

You are amazing. Great pictures also!

Eliwon—I don’t want to hijack the thread, so DM me for more info if needed— but for everyone, the following video link shares the marbling print technique used by Kyoto Marble and sought by Hermes, which is maybe another video.
It’s very unique, I can’t explain it, like printing with sculptured flats of play-dough carved and pressed from “color starches.”. Significantly, This year’s Balade en Berline is a complete composition of an H classic, while the one prior marbled scarf from H past season was a floating image at each scarf corner.

I finally had time to watch the video. The technique reminds me of making polymer clay jewellery. Fascinating! Thank you, Jbizzy!

Perfect and so clever!
Your Octopus knot is amazing too - I haven’t managed this yet in spite of the many tutorials!
