A wonderful present form your DS! And it looks marvelous on you!!2019 was a banner year at H - especially the FW season. So many gorgeous scarves. My 2 favorites are La Cite Cavalière and Index Palmrum - both very warm and I love the green in IP. I wore it yesterday, and because I was waiting for Mr Cookie (#meninvolved), I played around with it!

And now a special Oscarf award. We all know that sometimes our family and friends don’t quite understand how we feel about our scarves - it’s just a piece of fabric and expensive at that. Mr Cookie - while he’s not so sure about the scarves - knows that I love them and doesn’t mind (too much) that I can’t resist them. My DS2 has been watching me and learning about the scarves; sometimes when I get a fabulous scarf in, I show it to him and we go over the details. He gets how much joy they bring to me.
This Christmas, he bought a scarf for me - one he loved and thought was perfect for me. I can’t tell you how much this means to me

Spectacular! Wonderful variety of color, subjects, and vibe! I enjoyed your observations too, thank you for sharing.Oh my. I acquired a dozen scarves this year. That's a lot! Last season was really excellent. I bought a record-breaking 4 new ones.Two of my new acquisitions were gifts, so maybe my rate of acquisition wasn't that bad...?

The "most-worn" awards are really surprising! The #1 most-worn goes to a surprising dark horse candidate: Washington's Carriage wash scarf, a recent impulse purchase. It is cozy and easy to wear around the house.
The close runner up is Jaguar Quetzal - another surprise. That was a gift from my sweetheart. I would probably not have picked it out at the store because I don't usually go for earthy tones. But this particular scarf proved to be so versatile.
The second runner up is another surprise - everyone's favorite design to complain about - the BdG. Another gift from Mr. FR, it ties so nicely and gives me a very respectable air when I wear it.
I was happy to score some old personal grails, including Hola Flamenca and Tuiga. And I snapped up the ZP I regretted passing up.
I regret the SaP a little bit. I find the plume silk too thin for warmth when it's cold and too much for warm summer weather. It is a bit crispy in texture and doesn't sit and drape the way my other heavier twill 140s do. It was worth a try, but I don't think I'd get another plume silk 140.
Overall, a great year for my collection!
Well, it looks beautiful on you. What colors!!Thank you, and yes it is all the more special for that very reason!

What a fabulous year you’ve had! I agree about 140 plume but can’t resist the designs! I wish H would do more twills in this size. They drape gorgeously and are just sumptuous to the touch.Oh my.
