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

[Pirula]

My go to knot for the 90s is bias fold plus maitai scarf ring. I particularly like my mother of pearl that is dark on one side, and white on the other.

This is an archive pic, but it shows the scarf ring clearly.

Legende de poisson corail :

Beautiful!!! This is my favorite ring as well. Two rings in one. And so exquisitely luminous.

Thank you! I always liked the design, but really didn't expect to go for this CW at all. Yellow and light blue are two of my biggest NOs.... but the border won me over and it surprisingly looked good on me (though I was hesitant because boutique lighting can do that!). But even ABQ2ATL thought I should get it.



Thank you! The border is what really caught my attention.

Anyway, the knot is super easy, and if I can find a big mirror or get someone to take a picture of me I will show you all this knot when it isn't self photographed as it tends to look better that way. Hate how it comes out in self taken pictures, but it looks so drapey and nice in person.

I start it off as if I were doing a cowboy knot and adjust the length to where I want it. Sometimes I fold it over more if I want a shorter scarf, other times less if I want it to hang long.

Then instead of tying it around in the front like you would with a cowboy knot, I double knot in the back (you can single knot it but I don't trust the wind not to blow it away) and move the tails to the front. The tails are a lot longer when I make the scarf shorter in front but today I wanted the scarf to hang down longer.

Why that sounds so simple! Thanks, totally trying this.....

This looks great. I really should check out the rings one day.

Thank you! Most of my go to knots are very simple since I am always throwing a scarf on and running out the door. I save my experiments with fussier knots for when I'm not as constrained on time.

I am very excited for this week’s theme because I love trying out new and different knots with my scarves.



Today I took my new La Marche du Zambeze out for the first time. Like my pink Modernisme Tropical, this isn’t the type of CW I would usually go for. In fact, baby blue and yellow are two of my least favorite colors. But it matched with my Kelly so well that I had to try it on… and surprisingly loved it…. and of course it came home with me.



Naturally the day I decide to wear such a bright scarf, it snows.



Anyway, this knot is one of my favorites. I won’t buy a scarf if it doesn’t look good in this type of knot. It showcases a lot of the design whereas many of my other go to knots don’t, so I really enjoy it. And I love how the material drapes. Sadly, this knot doesn’t photograph well, but in real life it looks amazing.

Wow kyokei, your Zambezi is gorgeous!! I love the way you have it tied!

Perfection scarf1, I often do the same exact knot

We are twins on Super H, Seton. I love the splashes of yellow, though it is not a color that I can wear very well.

That strap is incredible - what a great treasure to have.

Thank you! I am honoured to be scarf twins with you and you're making me happy that I got that strap!

This is a soft pretty cw with ur colouring.


My current fave knot is the loop with a scarf ring to the side. From my archives.

To the side. It's brilliant. Not in a million years this would've occurred to me on my own. [emoji122]🏻

It doesn't get much simpler than this. A cowboy knot tucked into my cardigan. Ciel Byzantine.

Very chic

 

[bunnycat]

Sometimes when the weather’s chilly
Try a knot that’s kind of frilly.
When you’re in the summer heat
Tie scarves looser, not so neat.

Wonderful intro and love your Amours!

Gorgeous PbP!

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:

I think these suit you very well! Polished but not fussy is how I'd call these ties!

What I 'tied' on yesterday though raining I had my nylon rain jacket over my jean jacket, over my Tapis Persian as tunic, over a Uniqlo fleece long sleeve top LOL.

Gorgeous lanit!

Sorry this is a day late but today I'm wearing my Minuit au faubourg gavroche. I tried to capture my new loop earrings too.

I never was a scarf person until lurking on this thread and viewing all the beautiful scarfs and mod shots. Thanks for all the inspiration and a little less thanks for thinning my wallet

And a fabulous scarf it is! Looks wonderful!

I've been looking forward to this week! Still have some catching up to do and then I'll post, but it's already off to a wonderful start!

This is my most used knot by far!! Triangle fold and tied with the knot over to the side. It is super easy for 90s and 70s, shows off a good amount of the design, and can be adjusted so that the triangle is different lengths by simple folding.

This weekend driving up to Maine with Panache et Fantaisie.

Seton, Love love love the knots and the white EL! Thank you for your kind compliment on the Parures. It was tough to choose a colorway but the green purple stole my heart as well as the price as it was found at the Paris sales for me

I love how your knot cleverly frames the words "Super H"!

Apologies to all RL is overwhelming but your lovely photos are a breath of fresh air in the morass of stress and deadlines!
