Bulky yarn and great texture make this satisfying to knit and to wear. There are three ways to style it - folded in , folded out, and all the way up for fighting off stern winds. The front is worked flat with a few rows of short row shaping on each side to curve the front of the collar. (If desired, you can omit the short rows and work the front the same as the back.) The front is put on spare needles and the back is worked. Then the front and back are joined with additional sts cast on between them. The collar is worked in the round twice as tall as desired height and folded inside. **Skills Used** •knit and purl •working in the round and flat •kfb •German short rows (optional for front piece to shape the neckline) **Size** Collar: 8.5” / 22 cm tall Panels: 8” / 20 cm wide by 7” / 18 cm **Materials** •Bulky-weight Yarn 2 skeins Cascade 128 (128 yds / 117 meters per 100g), colours shown: 871 White 300 Holly Berry • Needles US 10 and 10.5 / 6 and 6.5 mm circular needles 24” / 60 cm long, or size needed to get gauge plus two sizes smaller •Notions darning needle, stitch markers **Approximate Yardage** (with a 10% buffer) 256 yds / 234 m bulky weight **Gauge** 14 sts and 20 rows = 4” / 10 cm in stockinette worked flat on larger needles, after blocking 16 sts and 24 rounds = 4” / 10 cm in broken rib in the round on larger needles, after blocking This pattern has been tech edited and test knit.
