I am very excited to share with you this weeks free collar pattern,
it reminds me of The Brady Bunch, for some reason.
I guess it's the colors. It kind of has a Art Deco feel to it.
It is called "Retro".
Please remember these collars are for fun and decorative
purposes only, and are not strong enough to attach your lead or leash to.
It is a little tricky with all the colors
but once you do one, you will love it.
and of course you can chose any colors you like!
Bright pinks and greens would be pretty, too.
Please add this crochet Pattern to Your Ravelry Favorites
