Thank you @xincinsin for hosting colors of a rainbow 🌈
I think the exact color of the border of my HG is light violet!

Moving on to the next color in the rainbow.
My scarf of the day is Ex-Libris Indigo, a cashmere-silk 70 that was dyed in Bangladesh using natural indigo.

Oh, and thank you (but should it be, no thank you) @HermesEchidna for putting the Patronus idea in my head. Like @Lellabelle and @xincinsin I needed to find out.
I took the quiz...I was musing last week about the wise and mysterious owl as my desired spirit animal.
And my Patronus is.... drum roll... The Chow dog
My pride is a little hurt, but at least I am cute 🤣🤣🤣
Chow Dog is so cute.
I just took the quiz & was shocked to find out that my Patronus IS an owl.
Off to find an owl on my H-scarfs (I'm pretty sure I'll find some on Kermit Oliver scarfs & of course into the Canadian Wild) & then to take some modelling shots.

I never followed Harry Potter, so I took the quiz and other than liking flying and being smart, everything else was randomly chosen. I'm an owl. I'm guessing that you are likeable.
Let's go for Indigo today!
The H indigo for leather is dull dark blue that can appear almost black. Luckily the H indigo for scarves is much brighter. Inspired by @Lellabelle right at the tail end of 2024, I finally took the plunge and bought the indigo fonce cw of Three Graces
I haven't worn it yet as the weather is dreary right now (flash floods!), but I am totally loving it
Interesting factoid about indigo, scientists who studied Newton's work believe that his usage of "indigo" equates to our modern "blue", and Newton's "blue" was our "cyan". Well, that really opens up the field for me tomorrow, doesn't it?
(thinks hard - do I have any scarves in cyan?)
On my merry way towards blue in either sense of the word, allow me to introduce a wonderful bright blue that is my fave as well as kissing cousins with indigo. H produced several scarves that had Klein blue in the listed cw.
This is Charmes des Plages Normandes in bleu marine and bleu klein. The two shades of blue (you can see them in the close-up) are equally intense.
Klein blue is a vivid blue that reminds me of lapis lazuli. Another fun fact: this intensely blue semi-precious stone was ground up in ancient times to be made into the pigment ultramarine.
The luminously bright Lumieres..
Maitres de la foret with a base so bright and so blue that one reseller described it as purple (ultraviolet?)
Urashima Taro has an amazing blue border
And lastly, the limited ed cw of Wild Singapore uses a brilliant blue as an accent colour. I can assure you that our mangrove swamps do not look like an alien landscape

I woke up with a terrible migraine but went to Concord anyway for some civic engagement. It was very beautiful and this scarf provided just the right amount of warmth. Bonus photo from yesterday’s re-enactment of the Battle of Menotomy.

Thank you @xincinsin for your marvellous introductions yesterday and today! I love your bright blue examples 💙 klein blue and indigo blue are so beautiful, I urgently need a scarf with these colours!!
Channeling @GloWW0rM today with my Maîtres, I guess it’s somewhat on sub-theme bc of the indigo -like border.
I woke up this morning on the other side of the country. Not a lot of sleep happened on the old red-eye flight but, I thought I'd take a stab at wearing one of the scarves I brought with me. This one has all the colours, so I'm covering all my bases! I'll need to learn to take outdoor photos earlier in the day. Here we have Brandebourgs Fleuris:
Off topic but wanted to include my Patronus photos (owl). SOTD is Into the Canadian Wild - the dark one - bought this because the sky reminded of the wonderful milky way at night with no light pollution when camping in the Canadian North. Bonus photo of a snowy owl we took on an "owl prowl" several years ago. Alas no sightings this year when we went. [& yes, it's SNOWING in the background.
Also found a snowy owl in the hem of Kermit Oliver's Tsitsika

And I know that last week's theme was critters - but when I was looking for owls I found this "Atlantic lobster" on Kermit Oliver's Samuel de Champlain - Le Canada and thought it must be one of the most unusual critters ever to be incorporated into an H-scarf. Still looking for an Aardvark though....

YES!! Isn’t it just the most insanely gorgeous blue?
Joining you today, indigo twin! So happy to have enabled you on this beauty!
The colour is amazing, and it’s impossible to photograph. It actually glows in direct sunlight. This is in the middle of a hailstorm this morning, with heavy grey cloud and low light. It’s still luminous 💙
