While I am on the subject of scarves....

I found a large lovely black and white scarf in the style of Hermes - you know with chains and horses bridles and things - but in fact designed by Pierre Cardin at the StVdeP a long time ago. Well perhaps last year which in terms of my resolution to not buy new clothes was when I was buying new clothes so this scarf was a bit of an anomole. It is of generous proportions which means that it can be rolled carefully to create a headband, or folded to a Hilda or Rosie style head cover, or tied at the neck.
