Beautifully displayed and tied ABQ, I especially admire the last blue one on you!Sometimes when the weathers chilly
Try a knot thats kind of frilly.
When youre in the summer heat
Tie scarves looser, not so neat.

Bova has the peachy circles with the red border -- I bought the one I'm wearing with Kyokei; cw 01 white/sky blue/green with a white center. The center doesn't really show and it's not that easy to get much leopard in the tie (DH tried very hard). OTOH, the border is spectacular and has a very southwestern look to me (although the blue circles do look a little like eyeballs)I think I like it a lot, but it's still got the tag on in case I change my mind.
It doesn't get much simpler than this. A cowboy knot tucked into my cardigan. Ciel Byzantine.

Lately though, I've been trying to just relax and channel our dear frou frou and be ever so insouciant. It doesn't always seem to work, but I believe that's a factor of needing to really just relax more. I think these worked:

With this one I actually did not fuss at all at all and looked after first try and thought "Yes; I believe frou frou would approve." And dashed out the door:

That's lovely!
I still struggle with the cowboy knot. Maybe I'm not folding enough fabric back but it always seems so poufy (putting in cardigan may fix this. Hmmmm).
I'm still learning. So while I try many knots, my two go to's are super simple since I'm usually in a hurry in the am and it's always dark.
The standard run through an anneau infinity ring and/or wrapped around my neck with either a tied knot or a ring:

17 Jan 2016 GO-TO OR TO-GO KNOTS: the knots you can count on to look great
This week lets all regard the knot
Show us the ones you wear a lot.
Got a favorite? Let us see!
(Will your favorite work for me?)
We want the knots you think are easy
Something fresh and young and breezy.
(How simple is it? For a lark
Tie your carré in the dark.)
Do you have a favorite tie?
I like mine low, not very high
Cant stand the feeling of a noose,
To maintain calm, I want it loose.
ARGGGGHHH!
Whatever way my scarf is tied,
I like the knot pulled to the side.
But thats just meits surely true
This style may not be one for you.

Although I've already announced the Scarf Week theme, I want to briefly revisit Dimitri Week and give a shoutout to the lovely scarf-in-action pictures. (Lots of pages without pix, though --but conversation is good too) The most popular scarf seemed to be Minuit au Faubourg (Super H), but we did accumulate a lot of nice pictures of Dimitri designs.
Special props to Seton, Croisette, atomic and Cherryblossum for their swell collections, but we all enjoyed seeing bunnycat, Pirula, Pocketbook Pup, Maedi, lanit, JRTgal, hermesguy John, scarf1 (headless!) lyseiki, Joannadyne, BJS, Bova, momasaurus, and kat99's wall! (And thanx also to Myrkur, EL4B, Kyokei, weibandy, birkin10600 for sharing their lovely non-Dimitri designs.
And finally...to Chris for giving us a view of the fabulous H sale in Paris! You look very handsome in your ZP, Chris, and we're looking forward to seeing you in your beautiful new carres! Thanks for sharing, everyone!
