Lastly I only have two Double faced silks- they do empty the wallet being more expensive than the 90’s but at least it’s not double the price yet at least for now. So I’m rather choosy to be sure both sides suit my wearing in good conscience!
C’est Le Fete was my first DF silk.

Thanks for hosting last week @HermesEchidna and @Redbirdhermes I never realized why horse and carriage caused so many cities to build up the roadways and homes. I just figured automobiles created the need for how street design changed! Very interesting factoid for my transit oriented projects!
Another great post, HE, one cannot overestimate the Age of Transportation in human development with it’s impact on humanity, culture, on the landscape, environmentally, on everything, both good and bad.
Ships allow us to see much of the world.
Such a beauty, Xincinsin.In the office building where I work, the upper floors house many specialist teams, including some who deal in forensics and assist our police in keeping Singapore safe. No, they don't dissect any bodies here, but this is their HQ.
Just an opener to say that skills such as inductive and deductive reasoning as well as extrapolation are important in STEM. So-called leaps of logic or Eureka! moments are the result of many connections and inferences percolating beneath the surface of our consciousness.
In Mystere au 24, we are invited to view the strange scene in the house with chaos everywhere, tame pets and wild beasts rampaging, a bewildered fox in the chimney, and Did The Kitty Do It?!!! Whodunit indeed (who done what?), filmed in Hermescope! I say it was the guy on the horse outside the house who dunit to my wallet

A perfect ending to a perfectly fun week, HE, thank you for hosting and leading us in our journey with STEM!Just a Sunday outtro of STEM-week-
Thank you all for your generous sharing of beautiful designs, cute Nerd Love Stories and clever connections to the theme. And thanks for putting up with my lengthy rantings on the fringes of stem.
I knew there had to be a lot of great stem/steam designs out there which I did not know about, and this week has added several to my wish list - so also Thank you (I Think) for that.
One very fast decision and speedy hunting process happened this week and this scarf will forever be known by me as my “guest-scarf-mistress-premiere-week-impulse-buy-scarf”.
I tried to convince an Old friend to let me adopt her stunning Black cw - hinting that the colors did not suit her (they did) and that she should not keep it (she did). But Then she alerted me to this one, almost as great a cw as the Black.
I am now the proud owner - and thus a sister to a bunch of you - of Laboratoire du Temp.

And how Could I even exist without a scarf featuring both Cave people, dinosaurs, Big Bang, the Wilbur brothers, industristrialization, video games, Moon landing - and a disco ball (huge scientific invention!)?

Thank you for your effective enablement and for all you kind comments throughout the week!
Wish you all a steaming Sunday!
Perfect Lanit - a duo, a double, and deux PenF!Thanks so much everyone- special thanks to @Awillow @GloWW0rM and @LKBNOLA . Happy Sunday all. We had a close shave for last nights football game against the Packers and just barely eked a win. Suffice to say, we enjoyed an evening with friends, comfort food and conversation.
Thank you @Cookiefiend for the new theme week even though I could easily enjoy a lot of STEMmy architectural silks
Since we are doubling our fun - here are a few that might add a doubling scarf energy to theme week ?
Duo Cosmique- pun on words but the title for this scarf in on point?

What I am wearing today is Plunes et Fete double knotted at the neck and sharing an older Plumes design that might have been an inspiration for Aline Honore’s newer interpretation?

I might as well add the second Plumes en Fete 90 silk to the feather party as well!

Great intro @Cookiefiend! Man, that is cold! Brrr 🥶 -- love your outfit to beat the chill though! Love seeing that Jaguar's cheerful yellow peeking out! And also, please don't stop writing poems for us... I juts love the rhymes! Cheval Sirene is a favorite DF of mine and that is a beautiful cw. This week was made for me as I adore the DF format!
Beautiful both @mktlim-- this is the gris chine Jaguar, right? I love Patisserie in all colors and sizes-- what a wonderful combo!
Beautiful scarf-on-site of your pale blue Pytheas @Karenska! Twins on the red-hemmed neutral!

Your witty post/pun made me
@lanit-- we are twins on this vibrant beauty and it also has two very distinct corners to double the tying fun! All your Plume variations are wonderful and C'est la Fête in this cw is so lovely...I love this mousseline @Karenska.
Here's a collage I recently made to corral my "leap" of leopards. I fell hard for these cuties and their bookcase full of artifacts and objects-- their "room" reminds me a bit of my own workspace! I've had two cws of the CSGM and now have two times double the fun with two doubleface 90s... (I sound like a Doublemint gum jingle! for those who remember...)
When I travel, I usually pack at least one of my DF designs because it is like packing two scarves in one-- enhancing the styling options (not that silks take up that much room, TBH).

What a week! @HermesEchidna amazing hosting, thanks so much. I have been in bed since my last post with a flu and it’s quite debilitating. Thank you for all of the love on last post, wish I could reply to more in real time. @Cookiefiend excited for doubles week. Have attached some archival pics of my two della cavaleria double faces. The 2020/2021? issuance, not the current season.
ETA - Archive of tiger double face also.

Late to contributing to STEM week, here is my new Alternateur, which the Boston boutique happened to have. I just love the blue side of this scarf. Not sure of the other side yet, but seeing just a little is fun!
And I now realize I am miraculously on topic for this week!

Welcome @Cookiefiend to Double our fun week. Your chilly 2 degree day reminds me of the joke we have about how it is twice as warm here, since our temperature is 4 degrees. (Okay, it’s actually over 5 times warmer, as it is now a balmy 11 degrees F. But I digress.)
I saved this double face automobile scarf for today as my crossover from Technology week. Formule Chic not only shows the leap forward in automobile technology as its theme, but also represents a leap forward in scarf printing technology.
This is the first Hermès scarf with completely different designs on each side, a vintage automobile on one side, and a Formula One racing car on the other. It also has different colors on each side that compliments the different moods of the two cars. One is a leisurely drive down a country road, and the other is charging down the speedway.
I own a few more double face scarves, but they have the same design on each side. I’m sure it is easier to not have the artist do two different paintings for one scarf. Until we start seeing more true double design scarves, Formule Chic remains a unique treasure in my collection.
My scarf of the day is Formule Chic.

Thank you @LKBNOLA - yes it's the gris chine Jaguar, I felt lucky to even get the design and the colour suited me!
I'm going to consider your tip with the DF scarves, I'm planning a very long trip but I'm not sure if I can wear scarves where I'll be going!

So elegant, @LKBNOLA, and your beaded creation perfectly matches your shawl.I did manage a scarf yesterday-- the day was so cold but cashmere and fleece came to the rescue. I was very busy with a pipe cleaner and bead project that my small craft partner and I spent the morning on. STEM connection: a great way to develop patterning and counting skills while playing! Results posted below. Not quite up to @bunnycat's aesthetic beading standards but, well, you have to start somewhere, right?

Wow, that is cold! I had to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius and groaned. I love your double creations!
You look so cosy in your beautiful Le Jaguar Et Le Colibri.
I squealed like a piglet when I saw your Duo Cosmique and Plumes En Fete. Two designs that I missed out on because I was new to H then and didn’t decide I want them until they had sold out everywhere. Your Duo Cosmique is a stunning cw and perfect on you!Thanks so much everyone- special thanks to @Awillow @GloWW0rM and @LKBNOLA . Happy Sunday all.

Smart lady, travelling with double sided scarves. If I do keep the Splash Park DF (if it ever arrives and I get to try it on!) that will be my first double face and I’ll be sure to remember that tip.
@Foxy trini you look gorgeous in all of these. Is there a colour that doesn’t love you?!
