I made this collar for my mother and one for my sister too. It went along easily, the pattern was easy to follow and I finished it in a very short amount of time. I don't take time to block my work (which is dumb, all of it would look much better if I did) so it's not as neat looking as it could be.
The collar can be worn on the diagonal so the points are at mid breast and mid back or square so there is a point at each shoulder, front and back and a straight edge across front and back. If I can get my mother to model the collar I'll try to post photos to show it's versatility.
I would like to make this collar again and add beading to it sometime soon. I would also like to try weaving a ribbon through the inner-square stitches and adding tiny rosettes to the outer perimeter. What do you think?
