Skill Level: Advanced Beginner (some experience helpful)

Nothing complicated about this project - after the Seed Stitch collar, it’s a simple 4 row repeat and then the Seed Stitch border. I have made 6 of these so far, and have been able to complete each one using only one skein of Lion Brand Wool-ease Chunky. Be sure to check your gauge. Your knitting style may differ from mine. I tend to knit quite loosely.

Stitches used: Knit, Purl, Seed Stitch (knit the purl stitches and purl the knit stitches) Kfb (Knit front & back increase)

Can be made entirely on straight 14” knitting needles or a 36” circular needle.
