Knitted collar

Some time ago I knit a collar for myself. It's rare I do something for myself. I think that's the problem of all craft makers. They always do something for the others. I never found the picture I took months ago but I made some new ones

I designed this collar to be knit from Wetterhoff's Sivilla yarn. It consists of 30% silk and 70% wool, it includes Aloe vera, Jojoba oil and vitamin E. It is for my own use. I need it at wintertime when riding. Scarf is a bit dangerous and difficult with horses. Wearing face cover winter mask is a bit tricky if you have glasses and it's not -20 Celcius degrees yet. Warmer weathers make your glasses steamed and that's not fun. :) The collar has front and back cover to protect the chest and upper back area. It has buttonts by the neck area and the collar itself is like folded turtleneck from polo shirts. I decorated the collar with some crochet.
