Obviously you don’t, if you think a scarf with a paisley design on it is something seen on Palestinians. Don’t mean to be offensive to you, but it’s just not one. If you can find out if the designer was inspired by Palestinian kefiyat, then what you have is a western imitation of a kefiyeh. If you don’t know where this came from, then you just have a scarf.

Yep,
considering the paisley pattern is of Indian/Hindi origins.
Which is one way to spot the origins of some textiles.
