What a fun week! I love seeing the variety of go-to knots people have. It's very easy to see from the pics that people choose things that work quickly and easily for them, but also that suits their innate styling.

My own go-to knots and ties vary according to format. I tend to like to merge the boundaries a little between jewelry and scarves. For me, twillies are one of the most perfect formats for this and so I use rings and cadenas to make that blend. The first is my newest love the Collections Imeriales twilly in pink, green and beige plus a couple of archive pics of other twillies with rings and cadenas. I think the second one is Mors et Jouets and the third is Bouclerie d'Attelage.

Very casual-chic croisette, I love this look!

One of my go-to knots is the asymmetrical tie. I recently got one of MaiTai's tiny scarf rings and I was able to do this tie on a gavroche! Who knew? It's so small it works well on a 70 also, so I played around a bit. Asymmetrical tie with 90 (Cavaliers du Caucase), 70 (J'aime mon carré), and gavroche (ZP):
Fantastic pictures momasaurus, and although I use the same knot for 90's and 70's, I have never thought to try with a gavroche, but now I will...thank you!!

Thank you all so very much!!! I l do love my twillies! :cool:

essiedub- You are right, I do tie in back for these. These guys are twillies, so no problem to tie in back doubled up wit the Mors, but a little tight with the smallest cadena. Sometimes I use the Mors ring the "normal" way with them:

but sometimes I like to increase the "necklace" look of the Mors and that's when I tie in back instead.
Adorable again bunnycat!

Disclaimer: it's NOT a knot but this is the way I wear all my shawls [emoji23][emoji16]... My SOTD..Aux Portes du Palais[emoji171][emoji171]View attachment 3245136

My go to knots the majority of the time with my CSGM's. The second picture is really just a slight variation on the first look. Trying today with my new Boulevards that I am still contemplating on whether to keep or not...at the suggestion at the lovely lanit, I am going to try it this week with various colored tops as opposed to my usual black. I will add that I do like the strong contrast of the shawl with my black tops as well. (my post on this subject/shawl are on the ode to CSGM thread :smile1:)

17 Jan 2016 GO-TO OR TO-GO KNOTS: the knots you can count on to look great

This week let’s 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—
Can’t stand the feeling of a noose,
To maintain calm, I want it loose.

ARGGGGHHH!

Fantastic knot!
 
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 -- :shrugs: 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...:woohoo: 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!

Thanks a lot!
 
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:
