It has been decided that we need a new Mumsnet Scarf

In order to stop hijacking stormforce10's brilliant thread, in which she gave another TerribleCuntMum a proper bollocking (go, stormforce!!! - and link here for anyone who wants to cheer her on), I am starting this one.

The old Mumsnet Scarf, judging by responses posted to a picture, is just not serving its purpose any more.

Here are a few alternate options.

Please add yours.

Skull scarf with attitude

Gorgeous white and grey butterfly scarf - my personal favourite

More butterfly options, with international shipping for those of us not in UK

Not so great, but worth mentioning nonetheless

The Original Scarf, which looks great on the wearer, but of course we don't all look like that

Sorry for disappearing. Been in bed with tummy bug.
Will have a proper read back now and see how many scarves I have to buy.

It needs vipers. Lots of them in a nest. Do snakes live in nests?

I want a scarf that looks like an army of ants is marching across it.

The 'not so great' scarf has arrived, it looks WAY better in RL! I have dark hair etc, the colours are perfect for my colouring!

nipers map one is my fav (I've looked at them all). I'm thinking yellow .......

I'm still wearing and loving my original MN scarf. Tried to replace it - got butterlies last summer - didn't really wear it. I brought a skull one but didn't like wearing it at all & skulls are more overcooked than leopard print IMO.

I was drawn to the zebras initially but they wore thin really quickly as they are for sale on EVERY London market stall (even the ones selling veggies).

Love the GAP one & the Stella Dot ones but I'm not paying £20/£40 for a scarf

Sorry I don't know how to do a link ( don't know if its already been said!) but Lush do some really lovely pretty scarves, ive ordered the flower print and pretty in pink ones. They are under 'gifts' then ' knot wrap gift wrap' . I don't think they're that big but they're pretty!!

I have just taken delivery of two of these in dusky pink and light green. For my mum nd BFF birthdays at the end of the month. They are very soft and a good size for spring/summer

One or both might not make it to their intended recipients!
