Created from the Mini Luxury Skeins from the Buffalo Wool Co., this little gem of a lace collar is the perfect way of using up small amounts of left over yarns. Sometimes a little can go a long way!

The yarns vary in weight from DK to lace, but it isn’t important as careful use and placement of each type of yarn makes this collar work.

This project would work with any type of left-over yarns from your stash – Approx 13 to 23 metres of each yarn is used for less than 100 metres in total!

Watch your gauge if you are working with the mini skeins. This is a row by row pattern if you are a loose knitter you will not have enough yarn to complete the project.

If you are working with limited yardages – ie the Mini Luxury Skiens – check your yardages and gauge carefully.

Two options are offered for finishing the front edges - one a beaded crochet edging and the other a eyelet edging - both are set up for lacing.

If you have more yardage try out the wider edgings – the yardages necessary for each edge is listed in red ink at the top of the chart.

There are 3 lace edgings from a very narrow edge to a wider, more heavily beaded edge - each edging chart has an alert to inform the knitter of just how much yardage is necessary to complete the edging on the pattern as written.
