Some time ago I acquired this beautiful cerise plisse version of Aux Pays d'Epices. I had been looking for one in a brighter colourway and this fitted the bill, although I would still like a flat one really;-) Anyway as today was a slow autumnal day I decided to hunt this plisse out and have a play with it:-

The full scarf. |

Circles containing details of spices etc.. encircle the design. |

![]() |
Lots of dried spices and nuts (nutmeg?) make up the design. |

I think it's a pretty colourway. |

Just wrapped around with the tails tucked inside. |

Butterfly knot with scarf ring. |

Butterfly knot with scarf ring and a
single knot.
|
![]() |
A single knot tied using only the very edges
of the hem to get this effect
|
![]() |
Scarf ring used to loop the scarf
ends through to make a bow.

Here I slightly lengthened the bows
by pulling them out a bit more - and
you can just see the ring here too.

Half bow knot with scarf ring. |

Just playing here to see what works I folded
the scarf across the middle and tied as per a
Cossack - it felt a bit bulky but if you want a
warm neck or cowl collar look this would
work well!!

Friendship Knot |

This is a single knot tied in the front of the scarf
before putting round the neck. I have hidden the
ends inside the roll and tied them together inside
the roll to stop them falling out

The 2 ring slide which works well. Hope you like some of the ideas here! |
