Perfect scarf link, Xincinsin. Thank you for posting the pics from your mini-pilgrimage to the Lucasfilm building. So sad to see the empty podium. I hope yoda has been relocated somewhere equally beautiful.I'm going to add on to @Redbirdhermes' topic of the day: lightsabers. But first, a trip to a neighbour and more nerdlore.
I walked over to the Lucasfilm building in Singapore today. It's a couple of stones' throw from my office. The shape of The Sandcrawler really does resemble the Jawas' vehicle in A New Hope.

It used to have a Yoda fountain in its surrounding garden.

But today, I found out that during the pandemic, Lucasfilm sold the building and, with the change in ownership, Yoda too has departed. Here are pics of his empty dais, and the lush greenery which surrounds the building and grows verdant in the central courtyard.

When we think of the sounds of Star Wars, what comes to mind is the soundtrack music of John Williams. A lesser known hero is Oscar-winning sound designer Ben Burtt who created many of the ambient noises or specific sounds we associate with Star Wars: the drone of the Star Destroyer as it relentlessly pursues the Blockade Runner in the opening sequence, the harsh mechanical breathing that identifies Darth Vader, R2D2's chirps and melodic notes, and of course the thrum of the light sabre as it activates.
Have you ever noticed the many colours of the light sabres? I have a pair of dangly earrings made for me featuring two Lego light sabres which I wear with my little Lego Darth Vader converted into a pendant

And the scarf which reminds me of light sabres?

May the 4th be with you all, my silken space-mates!
Well, I gave up on my ’Taun Taun entrails’-knot of yesterday, and decided to try again today. I also found Fifi’s instructions for the octopus tie which, combined with Snausages’ super example, gave me the confidence to experiment a little.
Try as I might, I can’t get the entrails to look elegant (I’m finding it as difficult as to bullseye a womp-rat from a T-16!), but with a small modification, was able to make something half-decent that has held up all day.

My minor modification was to start with a folded triangle instead of a rectangle. SOTD is Animopolis, which I hope has enough fantasy fauna to qualify for our trip to outer space this week. I’m loving it with the lilac sweater - it’s the first time I’ve paired these together, and I was inspired to try after our colour therapy last week
I'm lovin' this week so much! I almost passed out I laughed so hard (Mr Bcat showed the video to me right as I came in from mowing the front yard... 
)Thank you so much, bunnycat, for bringing your Parures des Samourais to the Scarf Side of the Force! I'm happy to see that design this week!
Perfect designs for this week, but even better is that you look amazing! Thank you so much!
Lovely scarf, and I love that Star Wars has cantinas with music. Very pretty scarf on you!
Okay, we have officially nerded out for this week. 'Tauntaun entrails' knot is something only a true Star Wars/Hermes scarfy would understand.
Thank you kindly RBH!
Just had to stop in say
how much I love this scarf!
Oh, my-- Congratulations @Teaforparrots -- what a beauty.
Beautiful @Agrume-- love seeing this beauty and a good tie in on the fantasy front too!
Ah, you are so sweet and I love hearing of your forest impressions-- there is something magical about being in the woods alone and you describe it perfectly. Thank you @Thelittlefoxes.
I hope you do share that @Redbirdhermes- with or without scarves it will be fascinating! You can always drop in scarf photos to illustrate your point...I guess I am eager to see it!
Thank you dear @Karenska!
Great outfit @bunnycat!
@Snausages!
Your Axis Mundi is stunning @frenchgirl and I love your Acte 3 tie with the Moon showing!
Very funny- a real slapstick moment @bunnycat! Thank you for the belly laughs.
I am going to stay far away from any ear worm visuals and stick with the pixilated stars @laurenad!
This whole post was
How beautiful in this colorway and in the CSGM format @citykitty24-- I adore this design...
Always so nice to see you back here @SusieAugusta.
I am amazed, too! For a non-Star Wars person this is truly a case of cosmic vertigo! But thank you @citykitty24. During the pandemic I vowed to wear a scarf every single day and that meant some pairings I might not have thought. The take-away was exactly that: the versatility of an H scarf.
Thank you LKB and you're welcome!
Gorgeous!!!!
Cosmic Sparkles FTW!Fantastic post RBH! I hadn't even thought of the Magic Kelly as hyperspace, but yeah! (I'e always loved the screen take on what hyperspace would look like...)
And today we have Revenge of the Fifth.

They took Yoda away??
I just read an article this morning on the puppeteer lady in Britain that created Yoda and many of the Dark Crystal puppets. It really should have stayed! But you look fab and those do remind me of light sabers.Perfect for this week!
Beautiful combo laurenad!
Hmmm. I was going to return this scarf but when I put in for the return/refund, I was offered 75 percent of my money back - keeping the scarf. Playing around with it to see if I like it enough to keep it at the reduced price…

Such a beautiful scarf. Thank you for sharing your De La Mer Au Ciel. Kamino is often mentioned as an ocean planet, but a look at Wookiepedia mentions several more. Here is a beautiful shot of Kef Bir, a planet visited in the Rise of Skywalker movie.
Stunning scarf. It looks great on you. Thank you for your kind comments.
Such a beautiful colorway of Clair de Lune. Believe me, if you watched all eleven movies, your Star Wars knowledge would explode. BTW, I have some images of the Queen of Naboo's amazing outfits on tap for tomorrow.
And today we have Revenge of the Fifth.

A perfect scarf to remember Sith Lord Darth Vader. Beautiful scarf and knots.

I'm so bummed to hear that Yoda is gone. I was looking forward to your scarf-on-site photo. Swinging Silk is so perfect for lightsabers as it captures the different colors. Thank you so much for sharing, xincinsin. And, I really need a Death Star t-shirt!
Men in space is perfect for this week. Fantaisies Indiennes is on my short list of scarves to acquire. And, it must have the astronaut. I think they removed him in later reissues. Thank you very much.
Beautiful scarf on you. Thank you for sharing your mod shot.
Thank you for sharing your pictures. I hope you can make it work. Of course, I like just about any red scarf, but the gray near your face looks very nice as well.
Red is the best! And birds are the best!
Ergo, red birds are the best of the best!
Seriously though - one of my qualms about the scarf is that it's not as dark red as it appeared online. But it is a nice shade of cherry...
Visiting the forest moon of Endor today with the forests of Wild Singapore!
This look was also inspired by our recent color flips. I tried to bring out the green in this colorway.

Great colorway for this scarf! And it looks lovely on you.
Thank you very much to @Cookiefiend @LKBNOLA @bunnycat and @Redbirdhermes about De La Mer Au Ciel. I really appreciate it!

Picking up where @Pirula left off with Revenge of the 5th today. Because surely May the 4th shouldn't be partying on its own...
"These are not the droids you are looking for...."
Flamboyant Web CS100 (This one is headed to the SGV so I can await its release to me later in the year, but I had to get at least one pic of it for now...)
But earlier in the day, and recalling @laurenad 's mention of the cantina scene in Mos Eisley spaceport, I wore Animapolis, as almost anything Jan B reminds me of the craziness and chaos that Mos EIsley and the busy cantina would be.

LOVE that scarf, LKB! What CW is that, if you don't mind? I wonder if it's still out there (excuse pun). I also love the way you style yourself and tie your scarves. I learn so much from everyone on here.
OOOOOOOhhh. Love this.And today we have Revenge of the Fifth.
