I was paired with Kerbi Hardwick from So Are You to Me. Kerbi is a 4th grade teacher in San Antonio and she was at ACU around the same time I was. We exchanged addresses and info on what we like/don't like in a scarf. Since we both live in south/central Texas we both wanted lightweight scarves. Thick chunky scarves get very little use around here. I also made sure to mention that bright pink scarves are a faux paux for me since they clash with my hair.
I searched all over the web for a great scarf for Kerbi. I found a bunch I love on Etsy, but I really wanted to be able to see/feel it before I bought it. I didn't want one that was too thick or too silky. So, after searching all over, I wound up at my usual scarf store - Target (pronounced with a French accent - Tar-jay). I have bought several beautiful scarves at Target over the last year or so. I found a beautiful fall floral scarf by Mossimo Supply Co. Below is a picture. I couldn't find it on Target's web site and it's been a while since I mailed it so I am 99% sure this is the one I bought her. :-)
I received this beautiful printed scarf in the mail from Old Navy (another great scarf store). Kerbi did a fantastic job picking out a scarf for me.
I love the colors and the tassels. It is also a nice sheer lightweight scarf. Perfect to wear now as the weather is just starting to cool off a little bit.
I've been holding off on doing this blog post because I wanted to get a cute picture of me in my new scarf (one not taken by me while looking into a mirror), but that is unlikely to happen anytime soon. I was all ready to take a picture yesterday morning when I realized that my camera was at Luke and Aislynn's house. I finally gave up. I do have one picture of me in the scarf from our Grandparents Day dinner a while back. The pic is not great, but oh well.
I really enjoyed being a part of the Scarf Swap this year and am already looking forward to doing it again next year. Thanks Kerbi and Meredith!
