An anonymous gift arrived today. A Mr Darcy scarf

To the person who sent me the “Mr. Darcy proposal scarf” from Etsy, thank you. It is cozy. I’ve never received wearable fan mail before.

I found the etsy shop that it comes from, but am resisting the urge to email the shop owner and ask who sent it. My feeling is that if one wishes to remain anonymous, that wish should be respected.

It has a quote from Mr. Darcy’s first proposal in Pride and Prejudice. “In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.”

The website says:

The famous words from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice are handwritten by me, and screen printed by my husband. The image of the text is printed in silver on both ends of a long, charcoal grey jersey scarf.

-100% Sheer Jersey cotton, very soft and comfortable
