La Danse des Amazones, whether in 90 or CSGM is a perfect example of @Karenska's post about corner motifs and borders! This is a true "grab-and-go" for me and I have missed it while on hiatus from my scarves this winter. Heading out for a late afternoon hike with my dogs before a night and day of rest. I always think of @Marie-the-Mary when I post this beauty.Happy Friday to all!

This is such a stunning design. I’m always sad I’ve never found the right cw.
What a sumptuous look! Esp with your striking hair 😍
You both look great! Puppy is da floofy-ist!!!
Beautiful!!! I too always adore it when folks compliment my scarves IRL. It doesn’t happen that often actually.
These are all so lovely! I esp like the Musique des Dieux. I keep debating which cw of that to hunt for.
I love your color stories so much! They are always so vibrant and leap off the page. This is a most excellent knot also.
Just wow. This is inspired pairing with the green! Sets it off so nicely.
Thank you, dear Scarfies, for your kind comments and thank yous. It has been fun to show off our hems, borders and fringes. You all have such grace and style and I think I have a few more scarves on The Wish List nowincluding finding Jungle Love Triangle which I sent back and now regret. (I have an ace up my sleeve to acquire it again
.) I’ll leave the week with a few more borders and that crazy little zigzag hem of plisses.

Have a beautiful Saturday and Sunday!
Thank you so much for leading us through the week! These are beauties, I esp like the colors in El en Cravat, eye-catching contrasts.
Well, I have a lot of pleasant catching up to do in just a day! A big thank you

Love Cheval Vague - that was a design I was expecting to love on me a lot more than I did. Yours is amazing. As usual I am inspired to copy your knots!
These colors flatter you so well and this red hem is such a special pop!
Cavalier en Forms is one that I think is a bit underrated. I’ve never seen a bad colorway and the design manages to be both subtle yet impactful when worn. I have the shawl version in similar colors, which I tried on a whim, but have found goes with just about everything in my closet. You’re so right on the ExLenK vibes.All of these are so spectacular I can't even find the words! I don't know how I dropped the quote on that gorgeous Cavaliers du Caucasse and your other beauties are just TDF and as always, perfectly presented and styled @Croisette7. Your CSGM collection is magnificent... I do think you would love the blue Bateaux-- a very different feeling from the stunning black. (And thank you! The blue Amazones is a delight; there was a darker one released as well and some confusion between the two but this one is light and lovely...)
Well, if I owned this I would consider myself in Blue Heaven @PoliticalGal -- you look fabulous.
OMG. If this were an entry in the "Who Wore it Better" I nominate Lino, hands down. Sorry @Jacq1-- you have some competition...
The hem against that caban or marine border really does add something special @EtsyBoss. It nicely echoes the checkerboard section, too!
You do the Edot Knot so well @mktlim! A nice way to feature borders and hems...
Thank you-- I would like to think that somehow, through TPF magic, the one aorund my neck is your former ELeK @Maedi!
The yellow and lilac side is beautiful on you @darkstar66!!!
A scarfie friend and I walked into the boutique and it was peeking out in the drawer. We both said, "Which is that one with the border that is giving ELek vibes?" And then we both ended up buying it @Katharina Luise. A little more enablement-- it is wonderful!
View attachment 6122198
Amazing! It looks fantastic-- I could not find a 90 Fanfare to work on me and chose this one as well @Katharina Luise -- I love it!
A great braid @GloWW0rM -- love the cobalt blue sweater too. I'm inspired to pull my version out-- it is such a great all season color but especially good to brighten the dark mid-winter months.
Wowza @Coco2606 -- this looks amazing on the bright green blazer...I hope you can get some rest now that January is (almost) in the rearview mirror...
Thank you so much @Karenska-- this is a brilliant send off and I am sending wishes to your Fairy Scarfmother to guide a Jungle Love GT straight into your hands!
You keep reminding me how lovely the soft side of this 90 is @Jereni and yes, that red hem!
Thanks, dear PoliticalGal, Jereni, Orchard and LKBNOLA
I love thèse on you, dear Jereni. Sisters on Emile scarf. I was going to get the one you have but that cw wasn’t good on me.
I love that pink Cosmographia on you! Sisters 🤗🙌
Hi, thanks dear Redheaddem 🥰
I haven’t checked previous pages and just realized I didn’t see many friendly replies.
I’m finally catching up.
Thank you for hosting this past week with so many great examples from your beautiful collection and the nice comments.Thank you, dear Scarfies, for your kind comments and thank yous. It has been fun to show off our hems, borders and fringes. You all have such grace and style and I think I have a few more scarves on The Wish List now

Thank you, Jereni. Re: Cheval Vague, love it, too, but it didn’t really work. @LKBNOLA ’s is gorgeous.
26 Jan - Festive Hues: Bright Colours for the Lunar New Year, especially red
Happy New Year, scarf friends!
This year, the Lunar New Year is on Wednesday, January 29.
Before discussing the lunar new year, let's talk about the 'traditional' new year that a large portion of the world celebrates on January 1. Why January 1?
It just kind of... happened. January as a month existed since 713 BCE, but January 1 became the first day of the year in 153 BCE. Previously, the New Year started in March on the spring equinox, when new Roman consuls began their term. A political crisis in Lusitania in 153 BCE led the Romans to send a consul 2.5 months early, shifting the year's start. Julius Caesar reformed the Roman calendar in 46 BCE and formalized January 1 as the first day of the year.
When the Gregorian calendar was created, Pope Gregory XIII adjusted it for leap years and formalized the 'new' January 1 (10 days sooner than it would have been otherwise) as the start of the year.
With Western countries exploring the world and attempting colonization, January 1 became a standard New Year for many. At the same time, there are other New Years: the Jewish New Year (we are currently in year 5785), the Ethiopian New Year, the Thai New Year, the Persian New Year, the Islamic New Year, and what I understand to be multiple New Years in India, including Diwali.
But we are here to celebrate the Lunar New Year!
In the U.S. and many countries, it is commonly known as the Chinese New Year, but that is not correct, as many other Asian countries celebrate it: Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, South Korea, and the Philippines. It is also celebrated in several countries with significant Chinese populations, such as Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Japan. And, of course, in many other countries like the U.S., there are major diaspora celebrations as well.
The Lunar New Year began as a way to acknowledge the end of the winter and the start of spring. In fact, in Chinese, the holiday is called 春节, the spring festival, although that is more a Chinese Communist name. In Taiwan, they call it 农历新年, the farming/agricultural new year (although that would be written in traditional Chinese, which I can't do).
There are many explanations for the origins of the holiday and the traditions surrounding it. The most common one is that there was a beast called Nian that would attack villages at the start of each year. Nian could be driven away by lights, noises, and the color red, which has led to traditions such as wearing red clothes, using red decorations, and using firecrackers.
So, to start the week, we are going to drive away all the beasts with red and gold, a classic Lunar New Year pairing (red for luck and prosperity and gold for wealth).
Here we have:
Van Linden's Orchidées:
Le Roy Soleil:
Croquis "Course de Champs":
Ciels Byzantins:
Promenade Au Pays de Cezanne:
Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre:
Rocaille:
PS: I am familiar with the holiday as celebrated in mainland China and Hong Kong. If you belong to other communities that celebrate the Lunar New Year, I would love to learn how your culture does it.
Happy New Year, scarf friends!

A quick hop on to show a wonderful border along the edges and a wonderful contrast hem of robe du soir.
While not a contrast hem, I am fascinated by the pleats on the plisse. This is a new-to-me format, and I'm honestly terrified to tie or stretch the silk! I love the crisp white border against the lavender on this bandana.
Moving from last week’s celebration of beautiful edges to this week’s vibrant Lunar New Year theme, I’m honoring both with L’Ivresse de l’Infini. Its rich red tones, intricate design, busy border, and contrasting hem are a fun way to bring both themes together. Huge thanks to Karenska for hosting last week’s theme and to Anna for this week’s celebration!
You’re all so sweet! ☺️ Thank you so much for your kind words, I really appreciate it!
Such a great design. I always associate Appaloosa with you Red. Your passion for the design always comes thru. And it’s perfect on the blue top.
You make it so hard to resist these cute cashmere gavs. You style them perfectly! This cw is the best of the bunch
Ooooooo I love a changeant!. Gorgeous color
Oh I love how you styled it to show so much of the design. Will have try it for sure myself. Happy to be twins with you. This design is so gorgeous with the detail, patterns and then the flower corner 💘 . I’m not gonna lie…I am staulking @Jereni ’s cw too.
Oh I’ve been meaning to go to that exhibit before it leaves, and my membership expires on the 30th. And I am to the moon we are twins on this! It is wonderful on you.
What a great tie to show off that green and hem. I love how the colors swirl and finish to the frills of the tie. And those are for sure my favorite part of the design as well.
This scarf is so gorgeous! It really pops, especially with that green jacket - It’s such a fun and eye-catching combination while still being super chic. Love it!
Wow! The monochromatic tones of the scarf are so effortlessly chic and complement your features perfectly. It frames your face beautifully and gives off such an elegant vibe. Stunning!
