Ohhh. I have to try and tir mine like that when my Pegase arrives. Brilliant.Happy Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, Solstice, or holiday season to all our lovely Scarflandians! I am grateful for this kind and generous community, and thankful for each one of you. Wishing you all joy, peace, health and happiness for the year ahead
Whether I have been good or not is very much up for debate, but Santa (or his locally contracted delegate, MrBelle 🤣, anyway) was very kind to me this year. A couple of beautiful silks were released from the vault, with the added benefit of surprise as I never know what he will pick.
SOYD was a special one, and a lucky find quite some time ago, that has been waiting for an occasion. I have long wanted to add a Tyger Tyger, and never thought I’d be lucky enough to chance on the SE. Here it is in all its glory:

And SOTD is my beautiful green Vallee du Cristal, which I am excited to finally get after securing one as soon as they were released, over a year ago, now. Shown here with the permabrass Pegase scarf ring. This combo was made for each other:

A stunning look, @darkstar66. You look beautiful and your BC is lovely. Very festive. I am your gav sister. If I had seen your colorway, it would have given mine some serious competition! Please give dear Merlin a big pat for me, sweet little boy.

Yes, it's Les Renards.

I've wanted this since I first saw it way back at the start of my orange journey. And that first one I encountered was a special edition priced at $6kSubsequent encounters with this elusive beauty were always fleeting, until this year when a friendly seller offered it to me at a non-heart-attack-inducing price
Congrats, Les Renards, you win the Oscarf for Longest Hunt
The second award for Most Pleasant Surprise goes to Les Jardins d'Armenie. Karen Petrossian did 2 designs to celebrate Armenian culture. I really liked both. Lettres d'Erevan is a CSGM, so it was on the maybe list (tropical weather limit on any greed for cashmere). So I decided several years ago to get the 90 Les Jardins. I hit a roadblock for 2 reasons: I'm not a big fan of tiny florals and have skipped several wonderful designs because of this personal preference. Second reason is that the ones in good condition and acceptable price point were not in cws I liked. I finally sprung for the pink, although it looked kind of dull in the seller's photos. I was Most Pleasantly Surprised when a vibrant candy pink arrived!

Honest admission: I still want Lettres, so if ever that lands in my hands, it would be Oscarf-worthy too!
My third award is the Take A Chance on Me Oscarf which goes to the work of another Karen: L'Arbre de Vie by Karen Swildens. Yes, not the L'Arbre of the same name by Christine Henry. I saw it on a reseller site a few years back and was assured that it wasn't some knock-off design. It was, however, the pics were bad, the price was too high to risk it and I wasn't enamoured enough to risk it. I picked it up this year and I'm delighted. @marietouchet identified thus as a Scandinavian Tree of Life. I haven't had the time yet, but I'm definitely going to delve into the folklore behind this.

Start handing out the awards, everyone! It's time for a lookback. In a year when RL has been less than peaceful, take joy in the little things of life. The Carpe Diem award, anyone?
, especially The Little Foxes. Oh my!
Good morning and happy Awards Week, Scarflandia! I was visiting with my older grandchildren last night and had some help showcasing my Oscarf for Best Design 2024: Sous le Charme d'Orphee. This year I acquired another cw of the beautiful silk double face (twins with @Jereni and @Cookiefiend) as well as my favorite CSGM, the beautiful terracotta, cobalt blue and grey CSGM. Later in the season my DD and I decided that the caramel was not to be resisted so we are sharing that, which is in her rotation at the moment (she also acquired the blue-- so our Orphee love is a family affair 💙🧡). Thank you for indulging my collage addiction!
Thank you, Agrume!
Many thanks Maedi ... the weather is dreary too.
Thank you, dear LKB!
Both are truly treasures, congrats!I love Oscarf Week because it is such a great prelude to New Year's Scarf Resolutions. Now I can look back and see all the resolutions I failed to keep from 2024while at the same time, giving myself awards for the bounty all those broken rules yielded!!!
But here's my first category, which is nothing but pure joy and the satisfaction of a long hunt finally yielding silk gold...
Oscarfs for Holy Grails Acquired in 2024

This is a great Oscarf! I've got to think about this one. I tried to be a good girl this year
but my first purchase was on 2 Jan 2024, so it was very much "Resistance is Futile"
Twins on both, nice to see the caramel works with mint or aqua.
Thank you, dear Karenska. You show that this gav can be styled in a completely different way and it looks so beautiful on you! Would love to promenade our two Cats together with you!
Congrats on your Renards and Armenie, xcs!How time flies! We are at our last theme of the year!

Good evening!!
This year have been a year of many attempts to not add scarves to the collection - all of Them has been remarkably unsuccesful. It seems like all the designs I have been looking for for years decided to just waltz by and tempt me in 2024.
A few of the nominees for personal grail of the year are
Voyages de Pytheas, Shackleton and Cosmographia universalis. I might have reached my quota of fantastic pink worlds
My sotd was Mystere au 24 - one of the few I picked up from the store this year besides the avalanche of preloved treasure hunting.
I wore it to meet a friend to have a last minute peek at the H store today.
The result: I Can now definitively point to the winner of My Last Scarf of the Year.
Heavily inspired by many of you and with a sigh of relief of the background color being silvery and not white, I brought home Emile et une nuit. Really no one would have believed I could resist those lovely creatures and colors…
Tomorrow will be a day of intensive cooking and eventually celebrating with Good friends, so this is my last post this year. Thank you all for your kind words, compliments and wonderful and effective enablement - I wish you all a very happy New Year!!!

2024 was the year that I finally embraced the CSGM. Four have entered the collection, including the two on the right that haven't been worn yet.
Here are the nominees for CSGM of the Year.
From Left to Right we have:
Voitures en Equilibre - Daiske Nomura
I'm a big Nomura fan, and I was eyeing the little dragon cart in the 45 version for ages. I finally decided to go big with this design.
Le Livre d'Esope - Matthieu Cosse
This pretty arrived yesterday, and yes, @LKBNOLA, there is a pink elephant.
High Flyer - Dimitri Rybaltchenko
I've been wanting this cockpit shawl for ages, and it finally came along in my favorite colorway. While this is a helicopter, the cockpit is not unlike the small aircraft that I flew. I'm looking forward to wearing this scarf a lot.
Sous le Charme d'Orphee - Alice Shirley
After finally succumbing and obtaining two of the double face 90s in the second half of the year, I hurried to pick out a CSGM before they were sold out. This is a very special design.
It turns out that I wear the Voitures en Equilibre nearly every time I leave the house. So far our winter weather has been mild, having gone below 0 F only once. To answer @darkstar66, we had several inches of snow for Christmas but it has all melted away. My Voitures has turned into an everyday workhorse.
The Oscarf for the CSGM of the Year, being the Most Worn Scarf this winter, is Voitures en Equilibre. Here is my scarf of the day mod shot.

Love the way you tied Mystere so that the fox peeks out!
I'm your tiny sister for Voitures en Equilibre. I bought the gav at the Malaysia Kuala Lumpur airport H after much deliberation - aka besotted by the dragon as you were
You made a beautiful collage and I fully agree how Oscarf worthy this design is. And the new blue earrings are the perfect complement. Just gorgeous.
