Moonfish Dickey
The Moonfish dickey is a textured collar knitted flat from the bottom of the front piece to the bottom of the back piece. The neckline is shaped with binding off stitches and decreases, and the left and right side of the upper front are worked separately. Once the front piece is complete, stitches are cast on for the upper back neck and the back piece is knitted to the lower edge.
