Dallet week - I just have two Dallet silks... here is the first - Equatuer a sister silk to Bkm's stunning black - they could be black and white opposites, right?
This CW of Equateur is my fav! Looks great on you!

Silkies,
My refrigerator DIED. Completely needs replacing. Four Shawls.
My Heater/AC unit went out. DIED. Completely needs replacing. Six Shawls.
But I have THIS Shawl on today---first time wearing---I can live out of ice chests and wear sweat shirts, eh?
Not the best pic but had to share. Belles du Mexique GM

Oh Sparkle. So sorry to hear about your fridge and Ac/Heater unit. A 10 shawl setback is devastating. I've been there too. Oh a bright note, your BdM looks beautiful on you and looks like is keeping you warm. Maybe it's best not to do anymore H math or else you will go cray cray.Silkies,

Oh yes, my AN shown is a 140 weight summer twill. It washes beautifully.Absolutely love this look-- everything from the scarf to your hairstyle to the striped shirt!
Love this look! Is this a summer-weight GM twill? I have a few of those and I haven't had them long enough to have needed to wash them yet, so I'm glad to hear that that weight of silk might do well in the wash....
I've never paid attention to this pattern, precisely because of that huge turkey. Well, I'm paying attention now! Gorgeous pictures that show how fabulous this is tied!
Beauties as always, BirkinMary! Thrilled to be cousins with you on La Treve. I aspire to be your twin on that Equateur....
I don't think I've ever seen this colorway of Equateur! Is this a PM or GM, Lanit? It's incredible!
Sorry not on topic this week but since I got a lot of Astrologie Nouvelle love during multiples week, I thought I would share what I wore to the movies yesterday. I washed my 140 silk twills and they feel so soft now around my neck.

Maedi - TY for your kind comments.
You look lovely in the Treve. Great action pic.
This looks exquisite no matter how you tie it. This will always be the Lanit Equateur to me. TY for the Dallet, darlin'
TY. It's from the second time they did it - 2006. Vert Olive cw (altho it is more a chartruese IRL).
Didja see anything good? That's a cheerful, yet stylish outfit. Do you have that vest in another colour?
Marietouchet, your turkey scarf has beautiful pink accents. I like your thoughts about tying it.
Greengoddess, isn't TF simply darling? Your color is one of the most beautiful ones.
Greengoddess, this is one gorgeous Dallet! I love this cw and really, really wish I could pull of the colors. It is just so pretty!
MYH, you look fantastic here! I love the look of your AN with your vest! Great job with the perfect combination and, of course, gorgeous 140 silk too!
Mousdioufe, I am a huge fan of MeG! Such a fabulous design and love your cw! You knotted this so beautifully too!
Deborah, great to see you here again!! You look adorable as always.
Thank you, Croisette, Scarf1, Florasun, Vitamina, Seton, and MYH for the compliments on my off-topic pink Plumes et Grelots (blame Croisette, who has every other CW!).
Yes, MYH, the jacquard is holly leaves, and those are sleigh bells, so there is a bit of a fun disconnect wearing PINK during winter holiday season. Florasun - not sure if it's minty green or sea-foam. There are about 3 different greens. Here's a pic of the jacquard and the greens.
A couple Dallet pics-- the first is from today, experimenting with winterizing a rather springy La Treve de l'Eau mousseline GM; I think it would work better against an all-gray background + the gray coat. The second shot, scavenged from an older photo file, is of a Jungle Love plisse.
Now off to see what beautiful Dallets have been posted upthread!![]()
