Heavenly!!!
Be warned- they are much stiffer than the usual mousselines.Thank you @27leborse and @scarf1
Maybe I need them both after all. So funny because mousseline 90s don't work for me.
I'm going to have to ask at my local store(s). I really hope they've ordered them (and still have some)
Can a stiff mousseline be steamed to take the stiffness out I have a full-sized (not hand-held) steamer.Be warned- they are much stiffer than the usual mousselines.

Even after washing mine, it still has a mind of its own. The bossy thing.I’ll wait for @Cookiefiend to see this but from her description (she washed hers right away) it may be part of the weave and may soften over time like a regular twill bandana would. Trust me, I’ve had lots of the pocket square moussie and the extra body seems like it would be a bonus on the size. Most of the time I double up the pocket squares because the get sooo limp.
My fingers are crossed for you - it's such a cutie!ACK! I was able to purchase this online Saturday - but my order still says "in preparation" Fingers crossed it goes through...It's so dreamy.

And a side view comparison between the bandana and a moussie stole - you can really see that there is much more oomph to the bandana:
