I do not own an iPhone, but am very eager to learn these creative knots.
Any idea how I can get access to that knowledge?

Edited PT

The Papillon is aka Twist Wrap, the Croisée works on the same principle as the Double Gavroche Twist Wrap and the Scarf Necklace is a scarf folded in the basic bias with one simple knot in the center and two either side. The Sautoir is a scarf folded in the basic bias with one scarf ring in the center and two knots on either side.

These three knots are only available on the app: Origami, Two-Way Pleats, Heart knot.

Hope this helps!

Yes, thanks so much. I have Color 10 arriving, hopefully, this week, and I can't wait to see it. I think it's one of H's best new designs to come out in several years and the first one I've been truly excited about in ages. The details look wonderful, and I love the whole "concept" of the design.

I also love the concept and the execution, but the CWs have been baffling to me. 10 is the other CW I want to see! You are so lucky. Looking forward to your pix.

Oh MaiTai, I know your site by heart, have ordered multiple times.
And thus the last knots - the ones only to be found at your app - are the ones that interest me the most. I would spent the money on your app without thinking twice, but I will not buy an iPhone or iPad just for this app...

That grinning skeleton entrapped me! I took CLF 04 home and will make a special dispensation to also get WOW 02 (when it comes back in) as my absolute FINAL scarf for the season.

Went to my store today and came back with a few new things that haven’t been shown here.
First off, my store here in the US had a lot of Jungle Love twilly’s in all different colors so if that’s what your waiting for in the website and don’t see the one you want, I’m sure your store can bring it in.
Here is Jungle Love Love twilly CW 21
Also, I saw a few Brides de Gala Shadow twillys. I ordered the pink and will get Tuesday but I got another color today and I also saw the orange/turquoise one.
Brides de Gala Shadow twilly CW 05

The Jungle Love twilly is a tour de force, and this sunny CW is the best that I’ve seen... Congrats!

I also got a couple of gavroches.
First I got a 4th set of the Pegase Pop gavroche in the orange/white/blue. I don’t have anything in my collection like these colors but I really loved this.
Pegase Pop gavroche CW 06
And a A Vous Crayons for my daughter.

Both are delightful... I don’t own an A Vos Crayons 90, but have always admired the design... and, must admit that it actually works better as a gavroche! Congrats!

A few exceptionals and others I saw yesterday.View attachment 4683868 View attachment 4683869 View attachment 4683871

Wow! Thank you for these pics! My local H really should display the exceptionals

A few I got yesterday - wow and artisans. (I also got two C'est la Fete, not pictured here.) Don't know the guy photobombing in the back View attachment 4683885 View attachment 4683886 View attachment 4683887 View attachment 4683888 View attachment 4683889

Just gorgeous! You got my fav CW of Wow! I wish my store would get this one! It is so striking! Which CW of Les Artisans did you get? And, we need to see mod shots of C’est la Fete... Is it everything tou thought it would be? Congrats!

I believe someone else posted but here it is if not, pani la shar Pawnee reversible. I can post more pics if anyone is interested in it.

Fabulous... Love the finesse side... Congrats!

Les Artisans CW 04

Drop dead gorgeous... Congrats!

Quoting my earlier reply to @misspink001 because I have now been to the store and they did have the Jungle Love Love twilly in yellow! I'm now your proud twin And holy enabling Batman because I saw the A Vos Crayons gavroche that @misspink001 posted in the drawer, tried it on and fell in love. So that came home with me as well There's just something so charming about the pencils and the green hem!

Such wonderful choices... Both absolutely delightful... Congrats!

I had gone to the store hoping to find a dark pink scarf and had picked out a couple of options that were from past seasons. Unfortunately they didn't have them. So here are the two I tried but didn't get: The SA suggested I try the pink Three Graces which was... OK. It was pink like I wanted but I didn't like the faces staring out from the scarf. Then I tried the yellow Plumes, which the SA talked me out of because I was already getting a yellow Twilly. But I'm still mulling that one over... I love love love bright yellow and feel like this cw would go with so many outfits. What say you, commentariat?

I know I’m probably no help, but I actually love both on you. My two cents about The Three Graces is that I don’t particularly like to see the eyes and snouts, but love the jazzy, bright graphic with a 60s op art vibe. After trying on at the H store, I found it difficult to “hide” those giraffe features I don’t like and accentuate the ones I do. That was easier to accomplish with the CSGM. As far as Plumes, I love it in every single CW. I have the white but would like to also own one of the other more colorful CWs as well. The yellow is magnificent!
But, at the end of the day, our scarf choices are very personal and they should be based on what makes your heart sing.

Really need your opinions here... I am interested in getting a CLF this season because I love the design. But none of the CWs work well for my coloring. I tend to look very washed-out with muted colors and prefer scarves in bright colors. I had hopes that the turquoise and orange CW might work, but based on comments here I don't think it will. Should I pass on this design now? Or get it just to collect the design?

I never buy a scarf because it is “collectible” but always choose those that are wearable. I suggest that you try the different CWs because you may be pleasantly surprised by one that you have dismissed before you’ve seen it. Have you considered the turquoise CW3? I haven’t seen it anywhere, but appears to be gorgeous and with some very wearable bright pops of color.

I hope this helps, I’m not sure how to do this as artfully as others on this forum have. If you’d prefer me to wear it I’d be happy to do that too. I’m eagerly waiting to wear it with a crisp white shirt to work this week. I took these in my sunroom to try to catch the last bit of sunlight here.

This is my fav CW of this design... So versatile and classic

What wonderful posts! You truly are a master! This same CW was my first purchase of the season and I’ve been waiting for Spring to wear it. Although I always look forward to and enjoy your posts on Instagram, I am so happy to see you post here again!

The white A Vos Crayon! Had to have this:
View attachment 4685257

Oooh, so wonderful! Congrats!

Tried this one in our local store: H033523S 01. Although I am not necessarily a “dotty“ person, I really liked it. So cute and fresh. EUR 350.00 is kind of okay, too IMHO being a mousse with jacquard/stitched on dots. Pix again from HERMES.COM:

One more which I tried in our local store and which is not on the website (sorry, did not take a note of the ref. no. - something with rose and fuchsia if I remember correctly...):
View attachment 4685297
Maybe @LadyCupid can help us here, pleeeeaaase...? - Are there further CWs available?

This is a wonderful design... I am a fan of polka dots because they are so fresh, spunky and youthful, yet always polished and classic

Thank you for your input Fifi I've decided against the Three Graces... precisely because, as you say, I know I will be annoyed with having to fiddle so much to hide the eyes and snouts. I'm still contemplating the Plumes... I don't actually like the design when laid flat, nor the other colors on the scarf... However the yellow is a huge draw.

Dear @ajaxbreaker the yellow Plumes is gorgeous on you! It is an elegant design, and completely different from the yellow Jungle Love twilly. Purchase and enjoy!

 

[Sammy Royal]

Thank you for showing these. Glad to see mousses coming back! Your A Vos Crayons! is very cute, too.

Thank you so much, dear MaiTai!! - Also for posting all these lovely knots!!

 

[Sammy Royal]

This was posted back here. In future, perhaps doing a search might be quicker.

Btw, did the mousseline felt any different than the usual? The composition for this particular 70cm mousseline is 80% silk and 20% viscose.

Dear Meta, thank you soo much!! How ever could I have missed the earlier post? Sorry!!
Yes, the mousse felt different: Stiffer but not too stiff - just as if there is a little bit more fabric than usual which suits the design and the comparatively small size, I feel. It is still light and airy!

You look fab in pink! How did it feel on SammyRoyal? I wonder if it is a stiffer texture than regular mousselines.

I too wondered about the fabric. Good to know the fabric content. Thank you Meta!

Dear Julide, thank you!! Tried to describe the feel of the fabric above. HTH!

WOW, your way of knotting gives so much life to it! It's gorgeous by itself already but the way you knot it, oh my!

This is my first post. I am fairly new to the world of H, having bought my first scarf last year. I enjoy all of the great information and pictures that everyone provides. I wanted to share Les Artisans CW08. The colors are much more vibrant than the website photo depicts. Apologies in advance as my photo taking skills need improvement.

 

[keodi]

Glad it was helpful! It was fun exploring the options, happy you enjoyed it.

So good to see you back, and posting again!

 

[keodi]

These are beautiful knots for the beautiful Plumes et Fetes! I will have to try these on mine that is in the orange colorway. I downloaded your brilliant app, Scarf Art, and will enjoy the tutorials and lovely pictures! You are so talented, and I can't wait to explore different ways to wear my Hermes scarves. Thank you for showing me how to feature areas of my scarf that would be lost when folded a certain way. It's opened up a whole new scarf wearing world to me.

Same! I also downloaded scarf Art, I cant wait to explore!

Lovely and congrats! The colors do seem deeper than the website pics. Do you have any mod shots of it? Or can you show it folded or tied somehow?
