beautiful cw on you! and, twins:smile:
Thank you so much, twin!
Omg of COURSE you have the Petit Duc I’m hunting for. Gorgeous on you! So jealous.



Haha wonderful hitting a spectrum of invention! And that Galaxy is so perfectly paired with the outfit.



How beautifully intricate! I love it with your khaki jacket.



Beautiful cheerful colors! Looks snuggly.



This is an absolutely stunning cw of LdT. Perfect for the theme!



As others have said, WOW. This is mind-blowingly beautiful. My phone auto corrected that to ‘mind-glowingly’, and it is that too.



RIGHT??!!! Ugh.



What a fabulous outfit! You look so awesomely put together.



Aaahhhh I love this design so much. Looks great on you.
Many thanks, Jereni!
Gorgeous Croisette!


That's good find for this week FoxyT!


Gorgeous on you SilkC! This is truly a perfect scarf for this week.
Thank you, bunnycat!
 
Thank you-- she makes lovely headpieces, hats and fascinators @Croisette7. She made the butterfly removable too! The Turqueries-- it is even better on. And your Astrologie! I have the new one-- the reissue from last season and my DH says it is his favorite design and as for your beautiful Pegase d'Hermes au Bloc-- so perfect with the stipes, jacket and blue enamel (and your bag looks like it fits right in, too!).


Thank you on both counts @SilkCouture!

I love this in Mousseline @bunnycat-- it is such an amazing design!

Thank you @hermes Echidna! I like also what you said about the themes giving us new lenses through which we see our scarves. A big day for Denmark today! I hope you enjoyed the festivities/proceedings and processions...

Double twins @Snausages-- that is a fabulous sweater for Galaxy!

It is so beautiful @CatScarfLover! Christian Renonciat was also the artist of my SOTD, Petit Duc. I love the delicacy and old world quality of his designs. Thank you for sharing the description-- so very apt. I hope you will continue to post often and share in the fun here!

Great vignettes and a perfect scarf for the theme @scarf1-- I love this cw so much.

Thank you @bunnycat-- yes the price increases are :mad: and take all the fun out of any impulse purchases-- have to think twice about everything now... alas.

I love your blurple Voie Lactee gav. You look amazing @Cordeliere!

Thank you @Lellabelle-- the jacket is um, not new, to put it kindly, but one of those knits with braid appliqued to pockets and placket. I like that it has no hardware. Hits about the natural waist. I think there are many out there.

I am a new member of the Patchwork Horse Club myself @Foxy trini and I think we may be twins. There were two quite close cws issued a few years apart. It looks fabulous on you!

It is perfect for the theme and this rose vif is lovely on you @SilkCouture. I have this design in the 140 wash silk and I adore it-- I am a sucker for scarves with writing on them ;)

This is such a wonderful cw of this design @mktlim. A great design-- among my favorite Pierre Marie scarves.

Inspired choice @EtsyBoss. This was my favorite from the 22AW season. It is such a great one and on point for botany!

Thank you @Jereni-- I am sure you can find it. A favorite for sure, Love Renonciat's designs.

Mr. Farrier! Hello! This is so charming @Pirula -- and of course a robot (AI or not) is on point!

Congratulations! How wonderful that you found it-- I remember discussing this on your Scarf Decisions thread very early on. I am delighted you are happy with it (how could you not be) and delighted to be twins. It is wonderful cw(05)-- it took me ages to find it. I adore the background color and the white hem. I think you will be so happy with your Tresors @Jereni!
Thank you so much, dear LKB! Your DH has a good taste btw!
 
Fabulous intro @HermesEchidna with wonderful examples! Thank you for taking on the role of guest scarf mistress, it's going to be a great week!

The 'scarf apology bonus' is real! Over the past couple of years I've had a few, but the most recent is my favorite. My DH was babysitting our little niece, who is 3 1/2 and potty training (I was working). She had a...ummm...messy/stinky bomb in her pull-ups that he just couldn't face. Boom! New scarf for me! :rochard:


Your Cent Plis des Miao is just gorgeous @ninakt. My goal is to be your sister with this design by the end of the year. :shakehands:


I love everything about the shawl @GloWW0rM, you look radiant wearing it! :hbeat:


:congrats: The perfect addition to your stunning collection @foxi trini! Love them all. :heart:


I almost fell out of my chair @Croisette7 when I saw your gorgeous brooch. It is TDF! Your scarf is beautiful too and perfectly matched. :girlsigh:

Your Projet de Voiture Petit-duc Bateau is gorgeous @LKBNOL. I just love scarves that have writing on them. Your fascinator is enchanting, the perfect topper for an afternoon tea. :heart:

Fabulous post @Redbirdhermes and a fabulous Exposition Universelle. I didn't get this when it was available online and very much regret it. Would you mind telling me which colorway you have? I LOVE it!


Your pattern mixing skills are over the top @Snausages, really well done! I'm coveting your Hermes Electrique, so darling. :flowers:


Your Vinci is TDF @bunnycat! Really, just wow. :heart:
Thank you for hosting such a Fun Week last week, it was the perfect way to start the new year!

You're perfectly on theme @CatScarfLover, and it's one of my favorites too! :hugs:


Just perfect @scarf1, and your colorway is the bomb! running to add it to my wish list....:dothewave:

I adore La Voie Lactée, such a fantastic design @Cordeliere. Whatever color you see - it's so lovely. Does it glow in the dark? I think @Redbirdhermes has a 90cm that does!


Gorgeous blue scarf with a green hem - one of my favorite combos @Croisette7. Just gorgeous! :girlsigh:


More gorgeous blues and greens. :faint: This colorway looks stunning on you @Foxy trini and is perfect with your sweater.


Just fab @SilkCouture, the best colorway of this design IMO. :heart:


Versailles is an architectural marvel, I declare you on theme @mktlim! :jrs:

What a stunner @Pirula, such vibrant and happy colors!


:ps: Gorgeous @Jereni, I'm so pleased you got this scarf! I was following it on Fashionfile too. It's so much more beautiful and vibrant in your pics and I'm happy you're the one who bought it! My credit card is too! :lol:
MabelJo, I appreciate your always sweet compliments, thank you!

LKB, I really would love to see you modelling the fascinator at Mardi Gras!
 
My other scarfmail last week was Tresors d’Un Artiste… this was a scarf I added to my list early but then decided I wasn’t sure about the color. I totally bought it on a whim the other week when I saw it on Fashionphile for under retail in brand new condition, with no analysis of what I would wear it with.

I was somewhat prepared to hate it by the time it got here, esp since in the meantime I found the red d’Orphee but…
holy delectable deliciousness Batman!!!
It’s sooooo amazing?!

I am gonna say this is more or less theme adjacent. It’s about the tools of an artist as opposed to a scientist or engineer, but they need a toolbox for their work too, and I imagine an ingenious STEM engineer could craft something clever with what the artist has here.
Congrats, Jereni, the colours are splendid, love it!
 
Today is about Scientific explorations - about coluring in the white areas of the maps and reaching the final frontiers.

Certainly many expeditions through history have had less noble motives than a quest for knowledge, and narratives of especially European expedition history are in need of some serious decolonization.

But let us try to find the examples and designs which still hold some beauty, regardless of harsh historical facts, and find scarves which tell us stories of human urges to explore the planet, time and space.

Look how this one leopard (of the Douze Leopards) is Dreaming about travels to unknown places!

Sandra Laroche’s two expedition scarves, Per Astra ad Astra and Le Geographe are obvious examples , and there are also certain polar-related scarves, which I , alas, cannot model in person, but I am sure somebody in here will bring them out. And there must be more!?

Le Geographe - based on the Baudin expedition which set sail in 1800 with the two ships Géographe and Naturaliste to map the coast of Australia. Both zoologists and botanists were a part of the expedition to also record the wildlife and fauna of the continent. Four of the members of the party are portraied on the corners of the scarf, which also feautures the ship itself, an Australian map and examples of Said wildlife.

Le Geographe ( photos from two different cws)

Another Laroche design Show the travels of French naval officer Lapérouse who in 1785 lead an expedition around the Globe. The design show a number of the places and people he encountered along the way, like in Hawai, Alaska, Mauritius, Japan, Russia and Australia. The expedition and the lives of its members was abruptly ended when both of the two ships of the expedition wrecked on Vaniroko - an Island seen in the center of the scarf. The ships were named La Boussole ( a compas) and L’Astrolabe (an instrument used for determining latitude by measuring attitudes of stars).

Per Astra ad astra

When the need to explore hit us, not even the sky is the limit, and space race, sputniks, shuttles, sattelites and rockets are plentifull in so many designs, reflecting the fascination of space travel. This is an area where my collection is painfully inadequate - but again Nothing but a Dreamer rescues me. And Rocket Racoon (of the Guardians of the Galaxy…)

As my probably sotd I am so exited to show you the first grail mail of 2024: Les Voyages de Pytheas which has been top of my list for some time. Depicting the travels in 4th century BC by Pytheas from Marseille to Northern Europe and even the arctic, this is a design I had to have and am thrilled to try on today for the first time.

Wish you all a day of smooth sailing !

Wonderful selections for the day!!! Those older designs have so much amazing detail and texture!

And CONGRATULATIONS on the Pytheas!!! It is just beautiful. This is one (and in this colorway) that I’ve debated many times. So happy for you!

So much creativity with the first two themes of the year. Loving everyone’s contributions. Thank you @bunnycat and @HermesEchidna for leading the charge. I never got to post last week and would love to add my one, late. The top scarf I thought of relating to week 1 with levity was the fun loving rascals on Les Triples. It is just a happy making scarf to me. I saw some other scarfies had the same thoughts. And @Living.la.vida.fifi where are those black and white striped stand boxes located in Paris? I would love to go visit there this summer.

And @Pirula reminded me about the connections we can make with family and scarves, AND science/math haha. My son is also studying stem in college. I bought metamorphose d’un carre because of the origami on it and my son’s love of origami. It requires precise folding and, at times, a lengthy blueprint of folds to get them just right, along with math for the right proportions. There are also tools used when you get real serious so your folds are perfect.
Most kids first foray into paper folding is with paper airplanes. A time honored science experiment in schools to measure who can get their paper airplane to travel the furthest. My son’s school did at least.
I know there was a recent scarf design with a bunch of paper airplanes on it! In a corner?? If anyone can remember which design it was I would greatly appreciate it!! In fact if I think about it there are a couple I have seen in the whimsical design category that have paper airplanes on it.

So here is my gav. I usually wear gavs in my hair. And here is my tattoo tribute to my son. I have another origami tattoo on the way on my leg.

There was an exhibition on origami in 1959 called “Plane Geometry and Fancy Figures," which was held in the United States, taking place at The Cooper Union in New York. So right there is a math connection to origami.
Here is some amazing origami art.

NERD ALERT— And my last nerding out on science, math and origami is about a club at MIT called OrigaMIT. My son was obsessed. The club had a project making a 3D Menger Sponge from business cards. The Menger sponge is a fractal curve. It is a three-dimensional generalization of the one-dimensional Cantor set and two-dimensional sierpinski carpet.
IMG_2874.jpeg
For those in UK, the MegaMenger project to make 20 separate level 3 Menger sponges across the world from business cards and eventually connect them for a level 4 was started at Queen Mary University in London. OrigaMIT has one level 3 on display.
Call me crazy but wasn’t there a scarf with a menger sponge on it? Didn’t we talk about this on a sotd thread?? I’ll have to do a search.
Soooo long story short..origami’s connection to math and science on my Gav, and cocotttes de soie, and I am sure on many other designs I am not thinking of. But would love a list if anyone finds origami on their scarf :love: . I might have to do a separate thread asking for scarfies origami finds :smile:
Cocottes de soie too

Thank you, HermesEchidna, great post and love your examples. Congratulations on your Pytheas! And love the dreaming Leopard.
A worthy choice, and beautifully styled! I love the sweater, and the choice of knot is ideal to show the design to great advantage - reminiscent of mossy rocks and green mountains :tup:

The pink Les Triples is beautiful on you @Nomad! Do you have the blue as well, or am I misremembering?

Thank you for the informative exploration of origami, too!

I am excited to share a new scarf today for which I can blame/thank @Jereni. Ever since she modeled this Pantin City on the seasonal thread I was smitten but thought it might be too similar to others in my collex :rolleyes: . Then I saw it in person and fell hard for the silvery lines and the general beauty of the colors. Still I resisted. That resistance crumbled to dust when I found it NWT for less than retail through the help of another enabling scarf friend. So with :flowers: to @Jereni for the inspiration and a :ty: to @Snausages, here she is. On theme, because every single city on the planet is an ode to STEM!
Pantin City.jpg
Reading @HermesEchidna's wonderful post (especially taken with that leopard dreaming of far-off places), I searched out the story behind Pantin City and sure enough, it fits the theme of exploration, at least in the sense of an imagined future vision:
"In this design, Mamadou Cisse presents a vibrant, futuristic vision of Pantin. Seen from above, this utopian architectural landscape gives a sense of the town's creative effervescence. Its colorful geometric scene seems to come to life before your very eyes."

And this City is staring down some seriously cold weather but ready to celebrate no matter what!
