Scarf of the day - which scarf are you wearing today?

[TangoTosca]

Greetings, dear Silkies, from your new Scarf Mistress

Maedi gets the prize for guessing first, but I think Scarf1 had gotten the idea by yesterday.

I want to send special thanks to my partners in organization -- Sparklelisab and Tango Tosca -- who held my hand through the weeks of planning our new Scarf Year.

I think we're all going to have a really good time, so here's to us! Let the silky games begin!

THAT was the best intro EVER!!!

ABQ2ATL, here's to you and a fabulous new silky year!

 

[Croisette7]

Wearing Collections Imperiales today for the first time. I can't wait for the silk to soften up after a few wears; none of the knots I typically use seem to look right when they are new and crisp to me. I love a nice drape.

It's stunning in blue, congrats Kyokei!

He's evidently from Ottoman empire embroidery typical of the Greek island of Skyros:

Hoopoe; detail of embroidered hem of a bridal sheet, from Skyros, a Sporades island. The hoopoe, or rather the cockerel, appears in several versions in neo-Hellenic art and possesses an apotropaic-talismanic symbolism, beyond which lies a wish for fertility but also for the fighting strength that might protect it. Late 18th-early 19th c. (ΓΕ 6381)
Below the embroidery, a modern-day hoopoe:

ABQ2ATL, thank you for your info about Skyros, which is missing in my collex, and
for the foto.

Before our theme week changes my two CS autumn silks. I don't get to wear the L'Instruction shawl as much as I'd like - but it is one of those amazing colorful silks that I love to tie and fold and especially love the color combinations/ Heliotrope is such a fabulous periwinkle blue on the hem.

Timing the APdP with its peacocks for feathers week!

I love both lanit! Twins on the LIdR.

22 Nov 2015 SCARVES FEATURING FEATHERS

Come, my Silkies, have a peek
At what’s in store for you this week.
You saw the list, so go see whether
You have some scarves that show a feather.

This famous bird with an Hermes label
Could be a feast for a family table:

This is the most entertaining and delightful introduction!! :urock:

Best wishes to you, ABQ2ATL, in your new role!!

Wow, that jacket is perfect with your shawl. Actually, I view this as a crossover from last week- feathers AND autumnal!
Ps. I like your new avatar!

That's really beautiful croisette!

ah! ZP! That is the first scarf that came to mind for me. Will post mine later!

And ABQ2ATL- Welcome! I can see you will be an amazing mistress! And thanks for Lisa's intros this past year.

Mom’s preparation skills are deft --
Once we’ve dined, here’s all that’s left:
(No, that’s not all—see bones piled high,
And people stuffed with pumpkin pie.)

Bow Down to you my Dear
I am grinning from Ear to Ear

Literary Society and Silk here she Comes
Beat, Pound, Sound the Drums

In Good Hands are we All
Our new Mistress is a Doll

Hahaha, sparkle! Thanks all around.
But I thought your favorite line would be "Boys in feathers are always perky."

Congratulations on your retirement -- you made it look like so much fun!

That was a FABULOUS intro that had me glued to my screen.
I'll be anxiously awaiting Sunday mornings for what's to be seen.
Welcome ABQ, our new silk missus.
After all that turkey, who'll do the dishes?
