Party collar
The Party collar is a base you can wrap twice around your neck and still have enough left to tie a bow. In the middle of the base you crochet a collar with ruffles, a frilly fringe.
The base can be crocheted or knitted, but the collar is always crocheted. It can be made in lots of different yarns and sizes.

- Length: About 160 cm (63 in), or long enough to go twice around your neck and tie a bow.
- Width: This is partly up to you, but it's good to give it some width, because it often gets stretched a bit and becomes narrower over time as you wear it.
