Scarves Scarf of The Day 2023- Which Hermès scarf are you wearing today?

[Snausages]

You’re right! No bunnies, or cats, that I can find on Animapolis. That is a surprise, given the menagerie of mischief contained there. There are dogs though. 18 of them, to be precise. Can you find them all?

I have dogs on my mind, as my dear old boy is in for surgery today, which is always a worry, especially at his age. Wish us luck.

Animapolis then, is the scarf I choose for today. On theme, and a favourite for my very favourite boy while he’s at the Veterinary hospital. Excuse the hoodie; I am dressed for practicality today.

Jan Bajtlik included an homage to Kluska, his dog, who is a central character and who appears repeatedly through the design. There are 18 Kluskas in Animapolis, including a dear one with Jan himself. Kluska makes an appearance in many of Jan’s designs.

For anyone who wants to join the hunt, archive web pic below. It’s the charity SE edition (I don’t own it, but I wish I did: it’s a grail of mine!). Including this for anyone who wants to play, as I think it’s the clearest CW for finding Kluska!

I will post the answers later today, so as not spoil the fun for anyone who wants to join in. Can you find them all?

Love Kluska! Hope your pup is ok!

Oh, good morning and thank you @Snausages-- what great scarves and examples. I wish we could have cats at my house but everyone is so allergic (including me!) so we have to admire from afar and love our hypo-allergenic dogs! If I did have a cat, it might be tempted to nestle into one of my orange boxes and become as flat as the little kitty on my SOTD: Le Chat Carre!

Most hypoallergenic cat ever! I love the little claws and what a beautiful blue. I find this scarf so unique

Contributing some Chats. I have a weakness for kitties and BIN this design whenever I find it at a reasonable price point.

A pic of Table - overhead view showing her rectangular figure Also, there are entire websites devoted to the loaf form of dogs and cats. I just discovered them today! And fell off my chair when I saw this photo of an extremely loaflike corgi!

How fun that the cats’ eyes are peering out from your knots! I love Table and am so curious the origin of the name. You could put a plate of glass on the corgi and get a table

Happy Lunar Year of the Rabbit (or Cat) silkies! Lots of fUn furry deets and regretfully I released my Zodiac Rabbit scarf because I hoped to collect all the zodiac pochettes and H stopped producing my zodiac year (Ram) and DD’s (Year of the Monkey). But, the lovely winter to spring design Ballade de Heian makes up for the loss!

one of my fav furry creatures silks of the north: la Vie du grand Nord. Honore captured huskies, Polar bears and creatures with such sweet faces.

Oooooh I’ve never noticed the details of BdH - they’re adorable! Cousins on VdGN…I love polar bears and its face is so happy-making!

Love Kluska! Hope your pup is ok!

Thank you, dear @Snausages. He’s out of recovery and just home. Still very much out of it, so I’m cuddled with him while he sleeps off some of the meds.

Yes! Whether it’s to armour ourselves against adversity with Samourais or L’egides de Mars, laugh at the superficiality of the modern world with Hermes Story, find a moment of grounding and serenity with Siestes au paradis, adorn ourselves with Parures des sables, or channel our inner queen with Zenobie, there’s a scarf for every occasion. A secret message for the wearer, and perhaps the initiated few who share our silky obsession.

It would make a really fun theme for next year, perhaps?

Theme suggestions! Keep them coming!

I had a friend who wore Attelage en Arbalete whenever she had meetings with people she didn’t like

Here are some rabbits on Petit Venerie, or small game hunting, designed by Charles-Jean Hallo in 1971.

My teal version is sisters with the red version shown by @Croisette7 yesterday. Petit Venerie is my scarf of the day.

And, my apologies to the sweet kitty on Sur Mon Nuage for missing her yesterday.

The vignette you feature in LPV reminds me of Watership Down! I love how your collection spans realism and fantasy

Cave Felem, my only cat

Gorgeous colorway! And I refuse to believe this is your only cat (but if so it’s a really good one!)

I just had to look that up… it’s the one with the great big horse rumps, yes? Well, it negates the need to actually SAY it!

 

[Snausages]

Cave Felem ... In my dreams...
Seriously

Squeeeeee! He even looks like the scarf cat (but with a cuter hat)

 

[Snausages]

Hooray kitties!!!! I give you Hermès Story and Toits de Paris. And the real deal….

That maron glacé is divine! And I love all the details in everyone’s close-ups - that shadow! One of your babies looks like she’s dipped into some holiday nip

And, here is a hare from Jan Batjlik for the Year of the Rabbit.

I think Grand Vent, which I refuse to buy, would serve the same purpose. It shows trash stuck on a chain link fence.
