My very best wishes to everyone for the New Year to all SOTD regulars, occasional posters and newcomers alike :party: .

The SOTD 2021 thread is now open and ready for business:



The new theme commences tomorrow (3 Jan - whenever your time zone gets there) but there's no reason why you can't post earlier if you want.
 
My Oscarf for All-Around Favorite Scarf goes to .... La Danse Des Amazones! Does anyone remember my hemming and hawing about whether I would send her back? What was I thinking? Came to my senses fortunately (scarf-mergency happy resolution, thanks guys!). The rich, soft colors and fine details make me feel cozy and comforted, yet sophisticated. The Amazones make me feel like a warrior princess - usually they are hidden but that's ok, I know they are there which is the important thing! The darling owl is emblematic of my "knowledge work" profession. And the variety of motifs, patterns, and little pops of stronger color provide continual variety. Happy New Year all!

Today, on this last day of 2020 (go ahead and play The Ramones "I Wanna Be Sedated" you know you want to! :lol: ) I have a special award. Mostly I made it up so I could wear my Brazil MT yesterday before the cold front came through here. :P But then I thought, "ya know? It really is a special award!"

So I looked though my Scarfnotes (yes- for realz....color coded too) to see just how many went in and out this year. Despite telling myself I was going to cool it a bit, 23 scarves still found their way IN the door either as a gift or purchase. I am grateful that 18 did go OUT the door to better pastures (mostly twillies and pocket squares but I did "cull" the moussies too and the cashmere (only by 1 tho :lol: )

So this very special award goes to a group of scarves that have somehow managed to avoid being re-homed in one of the inevitable Bunnycat Culls. I fully admit that I can be fickle and get tired of something (sometimes quickly) and have finally accepted that is OK! But there is an awful lot of "red" (sold) in my notes from the first year in Spring 2014-15 of Scarfbuying (I'm creating a whole bunch of new verbs here....) and very little of the "dark blue" (still in the scarf drawer) from that time.

The Scarf Survivors Award goes to:
