I loved the way it knit up but the collar just falls way too wide, I can’t actually wear it like this 🙁

I loved the way it knit up but the collar just falls way too wide, I can’t actually wear it like this 🙁
Also uses some hand-dyed yarn (blue with sort of peacock speckles?)
This is the project I was knitting the day Ryn died.
Heel started after row 10 of repeat 8, altho I accidentally did purl across for that row instead of the ribbing! skipping to row 2 of repeat 9 after the heel
(fish kiss lips in contrast for the heel)
Switch to all-around pattern at round 2 of repeat 11
Finished ribbing section with round 6 of repeat 12
Bound off with Jenny’s stretchy
Seems small (in between scarf and shawl), but looks like will grow with washing/blocking
I used a picot bindoff (cast on 2, bind off 8) instead of the crocheted edge, because I don’t know crochet and didn’t want to risk screwing it up.
Sleeves were knit to round 4 of repeat 14, they are also slightly larger around than the pattern (possibly my row gauge is larger?) – where pattern calls for picking up 25 st, I picked up 29. Tbh kind of like having a slightly bigger sleeve anyway.
Still need to weave in ends, wash/block, and sew on a button.
