Something New and Blue!

Following a job interview a couple of months ago I went to Hermes in Manchester in search of a specific scarf in a blue colourway.  Luckily they had one in stock :-)
Yes a Bateau Fleuri - this beautiful pink and blue ship hides
some lovely patterns when you look a bit closer...and I love
the little boat above showing Hermes Paris.  
The scarf and the sails of the boat are covered
in little butterflies, flowers and birds.

Some ways to wear - clockwise from the top left:-
Friendship Knot, a simple tie with a ring, 
a new look I learned from the SA using 
2 rings - I'll call it the "2 ring slide" and a Double Twist

Equestrian with a scarf ring, scarf flower
detail and a Cossack style with scarf ring

The sails of the scarf, an A-symetrical fold
and tie with ring and another look using the "2 ring slide" method.  

(How To coming soon!)

Cossack and Half Bow with ring.


I am really pleased with this scarf I love the colours and it even has a contrast hem (in white).  Hope you like it too.

  1. :-) The 2 ring slide looks lovely, I must try it.
    I like the combination of light and dark blue and how it mixes when you wear it.
    Looking forward to your How-To.

    Hope your job hunt was successful!?

    Have a very HAPPY evening :-)

  2. This is a seriously lovely scarf. The colours are beautiful and the design really, really clever and stylish. As ever, your 'ways to wear' are fabulous too. x

  3. Dear SA,
    it is truly a confirmation of your status as a scarf knot-queen (I am always delighted by your ability to make the most beautiful knots).
    I like the scarf very much - I think blue-pink is one of the very useful colour combinations (easy to combine with most clothing).
    Hugs, Maria

  4. Beautiful scarf and amazing knotting. Please share the new one the SA showed you with two
    rings. I am so challenged in scarf tying. Thank the gods for those youtube videos.
