1st Tie - Ch 25, 1 dc in the 2nd ch from the end, sl st back down the ch to the collar,
join with a sl st and tie off.
2nd Tie - join yarn to the opposite end of the collar with a sl st, Ch 25,
1 dc in the 2nd ch from the end, sl st back down the ch to the collar,
join with a sl st and tie off.
I cut off the loops from the plastic peppermints.
Then I Hot Glued one in each shell center.
The package comes with 9 peppermints,
so if you need to make the collar larger you have a few extra.
Keep the collar on securely so dogs are not tempted
to bite or chew on the peppermint pieces.
Rosie is wearing the Reindeer hat.
Happy Stitching!
