I know I saw bunches of hip scarves selling in Hong Kong when I was there last summer . . . so I am not surprised that people would be importing from China. I didn't buy any from HK though but I probably should have so I could compare.

One thing I do think is funny is that I purchased a crocheted scarf from Sam Moon's in Dallas . . . and a friend of mine had a similar one she bought off a street vendor in Italy, which she was using as a hip scarf!
