The Crochet Collar Pattern Guide.

Hello there! This is one of my favorite handmade projects (especially for scrap yarn) to accessorize for the Fall. Crocheted collars truly add such a touch of whimsy and even more so with it being handmade. For this pattern, I selected various colors, with also creating it in one color as well, for a more minimalistic approach. Hope you truly enjoy this easy, fun and Free crochet pattern to make!
