I had to look up the chouchou knot -- I found a swell tutorial and it's really easy! http://www.aestheticalterations.com/2014/11/02/le-knot-chou-chou/
Scroll down for a lot of variatons -- there are some blank spaces in the scroll, so don't give up!
The difference between Chou Chou and Mai Tai's "Flower Knot" is that you only make one loop with CC, then pull the ends through and tie them around your neck. The Flower wants you to make a double knot and pull the opposite ends under the one you tied, leaving a fluffy "flower" in front.
I've used the Flower for gavroches (single or double); here with Fantaisies Indiennes and Regina

For you Bova.... i am wearing the Boulevards today!
Thank you, Croisette!
I'm in great company here
I have a long way to go in acquiring some tying skills, but I thought I'd share what I like to do in these chilly days. Sorry for the bad lighting, it's almost night here
Very elegant
Beautiful way to wear the MT!

Clearly have a few kinks to work out, but it's a Bova knot for sure. It seems my brain can only do this while not wearing it, then putting it over my head. [emoji4]
Thank you Croisette, OrangeAddiction and Pirula!
Pirula- I love that scarf! Is it the pointu?
Well done! This CW seems to suit you.
Like this on you!
Very dapper!How scarf-wearing started for me...the simple, classic ascot. Eperon d' Or, 90 cm. One of five in this pattern in the collex at last count...4 90 cm and one pochette.

Love the neutral on you!
Very striking on you!Good morning friends. Here is my humble attempt at Seton's ring to the side. Feeling very hip with my asymmetrical ring and my McQueen jacket with the David Bowie'esque shoulder pads. (May he rest in peace)

Wearing the Bova knot yesterday...although as I have mentioned in the past, credit goes to one of the lovely SA's at the Boston store. I have also posted pictures to try and show the sequence involved in getting this look. I apologize that I am not tech-savvy enough to know how to add those cool hand-drawn arrows and such, so I hope this helps those who struggle to tame this knot (eh-hem Pirula)
