For a quick way to upscale your wardrobe, Jane Burns' elegant lace collar is a stylish remedy
Ever feel like you’ve got nothing to wear? If you’re anything like us, we bet you’ve got a wardrobe full of clothes that just don’t excite you any more. Rather than getting rid of them, revive your old tops with this vintage-style lace collar created by Jane Burns. It will take less than one 100g ball of most yarns, and only one of this month’s special cover gift, making it a great cost-effective option too.
It’s so easily interchangeable between outfits and it will add a touch of style to plain, ordinary necklines. Carry it with you and transform a daytime outfit all ready for an evening out –jazz it up with a brooch for extra pizzazz.
The collar is made from two knitted panels, each one measuring 10x41cm. You'll find a full list of abbreviations here.
