Thank you @Lellabelle and @Karenska-- I hope you will wear yours soon, too. What could be better than a starry night of silk? The cake is just a simple cake but like many Jewish recipes it is made with oil instead of butter. Otherwise it is a mix of apples, walnuts, cinnamon nestled between two layers of almond flavored batter and dusted with confectioners sugar! Very simple and delish!

And speaking if cake! The perfect holiday scarf-- looks great with your nice knot and your red sweater @mktlim...

Thank you so much @Croisette7 and I wish you a happy and joyful Christmas!

I love the way you wove your strand of pearls around the scarf @Redbirdhermes. Great scarf and best wishes for a very Merry Christmas. I bet your little grandson will have a wonderful time...enjoy your holiday...

Photo evidence of your impressive holiday baking but an even better angle to show your beautiful top and scarf combination! How nice to think of days getting longer and future gardens @Teaforparrots! Happy Holidays...
The cake sounds delicious and an intriguing combination of ingredients.

SOTD, Grand Vie du Nord plisse with sparkly crystal and ss necklace. I am so behind because of being ill, but I just want to say you are showing some fantastically festive silks! Merry, merry…

And my mantlepiece. That Father Christmas doll is 40 years old. The little elf in the crook in his arm is an antique and a gift from my beloved aunt and godmother.

Thank you all for the kind wishes (I hope I haven’t missed anyone!). Recovering slowly, and like @bunnycat and MrBCat, MrBelle and I will be in a quarantine bubble too over the holidays. Wishing everyone a healthy and happy holiday season.

Following Bunny's brave example, and for @LKBNOLA and @Karenska : my new to me Charme, below. I haven’t found any festive motifs in it (though the greenery has a pagan-vibe, perhaps…?), but the soft creams and lilacs are a lovely mirror for our very wintery sunrise this morning. Three feet of snow on the ground, and it’s -15C, so this was a VERY quick photo!

Another side of my Christmas tree and my self-wabi-sabi’d but still festive Perroquets scarf (Great Chicken Explosion Situation Of 2022). Still very wearable but I’d definitely buy another if I found one in great condition.

Fun week of preparations and celebrations events, and everyone’s scarves are inspirational! Very grateful to @Karenska for a wonderful intro and reminder of 130s anniversary of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker premiere at Mariinsky! Your La Comedie Italienne is gorgeous!

Yesterday I had a delightful day meeting a lovely friend for lunch and some new season scarf browsing at her lovely local boutique. My trip was timed to avoid the predicted Bomb Cyclone but I was bundled up in my new Selle Imaginaire CSGM which has some touches of pine green and burgundy. Today I am doing chores wearing this cute Paris Station bandana in a pretty "vert cypress" color. Going for a "wintergreen" mini-theme within-a-theme for my SOYD and SOTD...

Save The Best For Last: Your favorite purchases this year, new or vintage

Happy Sunday and a very Merry Christmas, my dear scarfie friends!

I wish you all much health, joy, and blessings this holiday season and a bounty of silken treasures in the coming year. I wish to thank our dear @Karenska for hosting a fabulous week of holiday favorites. And, my apologies for being absent for most of it as my week began with a series of unexpected challenges which put a halt to all of my holiday preparations. Through it all, I was finally able to get home and table ready for the holidays. Here are a few festive images which include the chocolate streusel coffee cake we are about to devour.

D8D8C0B6-2F55-4A16-ACE7-BEA8646AFDB8.jpeg

So, here we are wrapping up 2022 on SOTD with what is my favorite week on the forum for we finally have a chance to tally up all our silk acquisitions of the year and share our favorites. I personally plan to show all of the scarves that entered my collection in 2022 and, if you so wish, I invite you to do the same.

This year I purchased a variety of twill 90s, giant silks, 70cms, mousselines and CSGMs. I also purchased one giant triangle and tried a new-to-me format: the maxi twilly. This was a year of discovery of new designs, experimentation with new formats and fulfillment of a few coveted Grails.

A trend in my collecting habits that I noticed is that this year I gravitated towards adding multiples of a specific design. I also noticed I had a versatile year that incorporated wide varieties of formats and styles.

I kick off the week with my favorite 90cm twill design from the 2022 collections: En Liberté. This fabulous piece, especially for the dog lovers, is incredibly versatile and wearable. I purchased the first CW below in the summer, and was delighted to find the aubergine CW this morning under the Christmas tree.

DA20B854-D9C0-4B23-9DA1-4B6CCBC0FE72.jpeg

This year one of of my all-time Grails entered my collection: the marvelous Doigts de Fee in this coveted CW.
73857980-4DA0-4C7A-BBE2-71C6E8355135.jpeg

Speaking of Grails, this year I was able to find an extraordinary mousseline that I had almost lost hope of owning: the exquisite changeant La Rosee
169BE4C6-6DC0-404F-9C18-273592F39722.jpeg

Since I live in a tropical climate, I have abstained from purchasing CSGMs lately, but I did add two long-time favorites to my collection this year. I had plans to wear one of my classic holiday scarves to Christmas Mass this morning, but we are having a cold front as the temps have dipped into the 40s, so it is the perfect opportunity to wear one of them: the magnificent, festive Early America. Not a holiday design, but one that I find appropriate for the day.
EFFDD80E-43DB-4EB6-B157-895A5ACE7D60.jpeg

I am looking forward to this fun and exciting week as we recap our treasured acquisitions of 2022 and share our recent marvels. I expect nothing short of a dazzling parade. And, as always, I encourage all to share our actual SOTDs. It is a great honor and pleasure to host this wonderful week as we ring out another silken year together

Hello everyone

I take this opportunity to wish you all a very merry Christmas . I am new here, having purchased my first scarf just a few months ago. I am very happy to have found this wonderful forum.

Today, I am wearing my third and most recent cashmere shawl, Botanica Grafica cw 02.

I tried to take a decent picture, realising I do need some more experience tying my shawls

Joyeux Noël!!

Edit: if anyone knows how to get my picture straight, I will be very grateful ☺️

Thank you for a wonderfully festive week, @Karenska, and welcome to Christmas Day and to help us ring out the old year, @Living.la.vida.fifi. I am looking forward to your compilation of 2022 scarves with great anticipation.

I was delighted to find this most special Madison Party scarf a few weeks ago. It is perfect for days like today when our temperatures are below zero Fahrenheit.

20221225_093801.jpg

But my scarf of the day is one I found under my Christmas tree this morning. Chorus Stellarum in green.

20221225_094035.jpg

These scarves were both hard to find given that I live several states away from the nearest boutique. I do appreciate the sellers who, for reasons unknown, decided these scarves were not for them.

Happy Holidays to all!
 
A very Merry Christmas Day to all my beautiful TPF friends! And a very warm and grateful thank you to @Karenska and @Living.la.vida.fifi for hosting last week and this. I am thrilled to share a grail for me that also is 1) a crossover scarf from Holiday Week (and even from Purple Week!) and 2) this completes my collection of four De Passage Scarves. I will post the set as part of this week's theme as two of the four came to me in this calendar year. I hope that whether you are celebrating the 7th night of Chanukah or Christmas Day, you found an orange box in your pile of gifts much like the ones on my scarf!
Editing to add the title! This is, as @Redbirdhermes noted, De Passage a Moscou.

Hello! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you @redheaddem, but most important, welcome! So happy to see you sharing your beautiful and festive Botanica Grafica shawl. I am your sister on this design-- I love it and love my navy blue. It is easy to tie and very lovely with its different borders and graphics. I love this cw. Congratulations on your new shawl-- it looks amazing on you.
The same to you @HScarfCollector -- a charming deployment of H in this cute photo!
Merry Christmas! Happy holidays to all wonderful scarfies!

I am wearing "our" Madison Party scarf today as well for a brief and cold walk across the way to introduce our new pup to the neighbors!

This must be De Passage a Moscou. Wonderful, wonderful treasure and in the purple colorway. Chefs kiss, and looking forward to seeing the entire collection. Congratulations and have a great holiday.

ETA : Adore the pearls. Don't they kick even the most beautiful scarf up a notch? Lovely.

A trend in my collecting habits that I noticed is that this year I gravitated towards adding multiples of a specific design. I also noticed I had a versatile year that incorporated wide varieties of formats and styles.

I kick off the week with my favorite 90cm twill design from the 2022 collections: En Liberté. This fabulous piece, especially for the dog lovers, is incredibly versatile and wearable. I purchased the first CW below in the summer, and was delighted to find the aubergine CW this morning under the Christmas tree.

This year one of of my all-time Grails entered my collection: the marvelous Doigts de Fee in this coveted CW.

Speaking of Grails, this year I was able to find an extraordinary mousseline that I had almost lost hope of owning: the exquisite changeant La Rosee

Since I live in a tropical climate, I have abstained from purchasing CSGMs lately, but I did add two long-time favorites to my collection this year. I had plans to wear one of my classic holiday scarves to Christmas Mass this morning, but we are having a cold front as the temps have dipped into the 40s, so it is the perfect opportunity to wear one of them: the magnificent, festive Early America. Not a holiday design, but one that I find appropriate for the day.

I am looking forward to this fun and exciting week as we recap our treasured acquisitions of 2022 and share our recent marvels. I expect nrothing short of a dazzling parade. And, as always, I encourage all to share our actual SOTDs. It is a great honor and pleasure to host this wonderful week as we ring out another silken year together
Merry Christmas dear @Living.la.vida.fifi and thank you so much for your beautiful welcoming post on this special day. Your ornaments, flowers and beautiful photos are so inviting and special but your parade of scarves is amazing and makes me respect your phenomenal eye and curatorial skills all the more-- something to learn from and emulate for me! Your new acquisitions are so beautiful and thoughtfully added to your already amazing collection. I cannot pick a favorite here but I can say that I believe you will love your new aubergine En Liberte! as much as you love your bright one!
