Knots are my favourite thing about scarves - actually to me knotting came first, Hermes scarves were a consequence, since I discovered MaiTai because I searched for knotting tutorials. So the theme of the week makes me come out of lurkdom again. And I am an avid lurker, but only at my phone and I suck at typing at that thing. So forgive me for not posting all the nice comments your inspiring pictures would deserve.
This is my excuse for flooding this thread with pictures. Sorry if some are a bit crappy
One of my favourite ways to tie a square scarf is what MaiTai calls asymmetric wrap, starting from a W-shape. It shows a lot of the design, is very variable and keeps me warm and cozy:
Next I want to present something I think I came up with myself, I call it the "bib".
Starting like waterfall knot http://www.maitaispicturebook.com/2011/02/waterfall-knot-how-to.html with a triangle, tie the ends of the short side behind the neck. Take the "bib" and shove it through the created loop. If desired, loop around more times for a different look.
So pretty and effortlessly chic enfleurage!Pirula, I am also wearing the same design today, just tied loosely on the shoulders. Do you happen to know your cw? It's really stunning!
Perfect for a rainy day hermesguy...very dapper indeed!Cold, gloomy, rainy Thursday in North Texas. Les Music de Spheres in a tucked-in cowboy.

Oh one of my HG's lanit, this looks amazingIts been rainy here too these past few days. Finally an overcast day to bring out a twill safely. Been wanting to bring out Beloved India for a while. My necktie knot.
Hehe...happy to be sisters on the bed covers bunnycat, and good luck with the knot today!I'm going to try this one Bova. It will get cold tomorrow here so a good time to try...I'm interpreting what I see as a slip type knot on both ends...
Also...I think we have sister or cousin bed covers....![]()

Fun with Maxi Twillies - they tie like good old cotton scarves![]()

Oh my goodness honeylocks, I believe you are the queen of awesome knots!! Thank you for sharing all of these...I am especially intrigued by the bib knot you show. I will be giving this a try for sure!!scarf rings are fun![]()
Well done! This CW seems to suit you.
Like this on you!
Very dapper!
Love the neutral on you!
Very striking on you!
Gorgeous
Very elegant!
YAY! The Bova knot and with our twinsie scarf!!! I love this so much.
Very pretty!
Gavroches galore!!
You did it!! Congrats! I still can't get it to look right when I try HAHA
Hi everyone. You are looking great. Love the Bova knot demonstrations. Bunnycat looks fab oh her flower knots. And trophees de venise is of course one of my favorites.
I have a new favorite way to wear a scarf. I just received this grande loop necklace. It plays off the large format scarves so well.

Beautiful! You have a confessions! I came close to getting the lavender one!Well, I feel a bit intimidated to post just following those wonderful pictures posted by honeylocks, but here it goes anyway!! The first is what I wore yesterday...arguably my most worn knot. I like it as it keeps the scarf contained while I carry on throughout the day and lends itself to being worn with a CSGM over it for added warmth during the winter months. The second is what I am wearing today...a fun and hopefully casual look with a scarf![]()
Nothing fancy, here's my go-to knot with Mecanique des Idees. Stay warm everyone!
Thank you, Chris!
Awww thank you, eternal![]()
pretty things abund in the Hermès world, don't they?
Thank you, Bova, I definitely will try this beautiful knot tomorrow
Bunnycat, thank you for the warm welcome! I love your name!

Nice, warm and amazingly stylish too my dear [emoji173]️[emoji8]
Thank you, Pirula! Can't believe this colourway went under my radar
Mind you, I did manage to aquire the blue CW 09, the white CW 07 as well as 2 mousselines... Almost all scarves I feel only one CW is for me. Not so with Jardin!
I will now begin searching for the black CW11![]()
