After I finished mine I went back and looked at the original inspiration and found mine ended up quite different.<br />Here's a link to the original inspiration: http://www.brooklynindustries.com/spring-knits/lyric-pullover-fifties-vintage-style-spring-sweater<br />Here's the pinboard I found it on. This lady has one of the best collections of T-shirt ideas. http://pinterest.com/emadethis/t-shirt-variants/ <br /><br />The collar is pretty easy. I used the triangle pieces I cut from the shirt sides. Basically sew two triangles together. Turn right sides out. Stack on top of each other and slightly stretch to fit neckline. I didn't have enough knit to cut a facing, which I think would be the best way to finish this neckline. So I trimmed the edges, my knit was heaver weight so there was a lot of bulk, rolled the edge over on the basting line I had made and hand stitched it down so it would Not show on the right side.<br />Hope that made a bit of sense. If you decide to do it and run into any problems let me know and I will try to help.EmSewCrazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896183158092761878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186605029090457349.post-56776312802740513272012-11-13T12:05:15.489-07:002012-11-13T12:05:15.489-07:00I like the contrast of the blue and red a lot, but...I like the contrast of the blue and red a lot, but then I may not be the best judge of normal clothing :)<br /><br />My favorite aspect is definitely the double pointed collar, though! I may need to steal that idea from you (if I can figure out how it's done, that is!).Cation Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00785063344305810736noreply@blogger.com
