My overall thoughts:
I want to make more of these collars! The pattern was fun, and I think I am now addicted to knitting with laceweight yarn. I will most likely not knit as many repeats so as to make a more tight-fitting collar.

September 22nd, 2015:

• Cone photo showing 40g left after finishing 16 repeats.
• Turned in for Fall 2015 Quidditch Round 1, River option.

My changes/adjustments:

1. Replaced the alpaca lace and crystals with silk/steel and pearl beads.
2. Added some beads while casting on and binding off.
3. Added a pretty stitchmarker to act as an “anchor” to latch into a yarnover in case the clasp opens.
4. Tweaked row 10 so that all of the beads from row 9 stay in place.
